Well, I am not quit shure, if I am right, because
Im using a debian-System with precompiled binaries, however:
There is an existing directory called app-defaults which is
part of XFree:
/etc/X11/app-defaults/XDvi
On other systems it may be under
/usr/lib/X..
/usr/X11
The direcotry moved from /usr to /etc
with the release of XFree 4.0
app-defaults/XDvi is something like this
(depending on your monitor, color selection, resolution ..)
------
XDvi*mfMode: ljfour
XDvi*pixelsPerInch: 600
XDvi*shrinkFactor: 6
XDvi*paper: a4
XDvi*wwwBrowser: netscape
XDvi*thorough: true
XDvi*background: white
-------
this describes the Mode of font generation
resolution of the printer 600(dpi)
shrink => 1/6
and so on
the syntax is typical X Syntax like for
XTerm, xdm and so on.
Maybe it helps :-)
