enlarged xinitrc file

[Chuck Hallenbeck <chuckh mhonline net>]

Oh by the way,

I am using a more complicated .xinitrc file than has been
recommended on the list or in the howto's. What I did was take
the recommended .xinitrc file for gnome from the Slackware
distribution, modify it toward the end, and use it. In case that
may account for my success, I include that file here:
----------
#!/bin/sh
# $XConsortium: xinitrc.cpp,v 1.4 91/08/22 11:41:34 rws Exp $

userresources=$HOME/.Xresources
usermodmap=$HOME/.Xmodmap
sysresources=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xresources
sysmodmap=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/.Xmodmap

# merge in defaults and keymaps

if [ -f $sysresources ]; then
    xrdb -merge $sysresources
fi

if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
    xmodmap $sysmodmap
fi

if [ -f $userresources ]; then
    xrdb -merge $userresources
fi

if [ -f $usermodmap ]; then
    xmodmap $usermodmap
fi
