I need to set the X server option, "emulate3Buttons," in order to use the X clipboard with the Cygwin system's mouse. The FAQ tells me that I can add, "-emulate3buttons <ms>," to the X server arguments. However, if I start the server with
startx -- -emulate3buttons 10 all of the X server's default arguments seem to get overriden. I would like to know where are the X server resources are located so I can add this option without overriding the X server's default arguments. On a related note, the server and display addresses default to 127.0.0.1, and that limits clipboard use to clients on the local host. Because this network gets its addresses through DHCP, I would like to know if there's a way to tell the X server beforehand what the network address is. I assume I can parse the output of Windows netstat after booting and add the address to /etc/hosts before starting the X server, but I would welcome any clues, hints, or suggestions how to go about telling the resolver library about the network address with a documented interface.
