Hi,
for many Emacs customizations there are corresponding X re-
sources (e. g. "tool-bar-mode" vs. "toolBar"). Looking up in
the documentation whether there exists such an equivalent,
looking up a potentially different syntax, etc. /can/ be
done manually - but there *must* already be a Lisp snippet
out there that does that in a realiable way :-). Any poin-
ters?
TIA,
Tim

You lost a good opportunity to have some fun:
http://paste.lisp.org/display/94218
For LessTif Resources and GTK resources, it's more complex to gather
the list of possible attributes, and I'm not even sure their values
are recoverable from emacs lisp, since AFAIK, they're directly
determined and used from the corresponding libraries.

Thanks! I had to comment three unknown symbols in your code
(Emacs 23.1.1):
- "(screen-usable-area (current-frame))" (line #129)
- "top-toolbar" (line #214)
- "top-toolbar-height" (line #215)
Emacs barfed on:
| emacs*visualClass: true-color
with the error message (that is lacking a newline :-)):
| emacs: Invalid visual specification `true-color'
"TrueColor-24" worked, with "24" being the result of
"(x-display-planes)".
Rather unexpected:
| emacs*menuBar: on
*dis*abled the menu bar; that is contrary to the manual. A
"1" worked fine.
I still have to check the other results en detail.
I would love to see that code packaged with the main dis-
tribution; any chance?
