47 ** "XEmacs" used as X11 application class

49 Previously, XEmacs checked the X11 resource database for resources starting
50 with XEmacs, and used "XEmacs" as its application class if any existed,
51 otherwise using "Emacs" for backward compatibility. Because of divergence
52 between the reseource GNU Emacs and XEmacs use, this has been changed; if
53 you don't have the time to migrate your resource DB right now, set
54 USE_EMACS_AS_DEFAULT_APPLICATION_CLASS in your environment before starting
55 XEmacs, for the old behavior. This workaround will go away in the course of
56 the next major release, though, so you will have to migrate your resources
57 at some point.
