Hi All

How can I set some of the misc preferences in ibm5250?

If I read the help file it says that for instance to turn hotspot highlighting on I use the option

IBM5250*HOTSPOT_HIGHLIGHTING:ENABLE

It doesn't say where :-(

That sure looks like an old fashioned ~/.Xresources file entry, but creating one with just that in it doesn't seem to work.
Are they still sourced in modern versions of X (I would think they would be!)

I'd like to make it global rather than per user as well.

If I make the change with the GUI it seems to make a 'Miscellaneous' file (type data, not text) in ~/.iSeriesAccess/ibm5250
I suppose I could copy that somewhere that has global effect, but I don't know where that is - /opt/ doesn't directly relate.

Comments appreciated,

Brian
