As far as the resource file, that would be ideal for setting default values? Please oblige as to where it's located...?

Thanks!

This may seem trivial to some, but at least to me it affects
productivity. I would like to know how I can change the background-color
of the X- bash shell. So when I do 'startx' at the cygwin shell, I get
the X terminal, which leads to programs like ddd, emacs etc. etc. This
terminal's background is default to the color white. How do I change
this? Further, I would like to change the colors of directories and
executables for easier identification.

It sounds like xterm:

    xterm -fg blue -bg green

You can also set the resource file for xterm to do the same thing.
