+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.ZN XtDisplayInitialize
+function builds the resource database, calls the Xlib
+.ZN XrmParseCommand
+function to parse the command line,
+and performs other per display initialization.
+After
+.ZN XrmParseCommand
+has been called,
+argc and argv contain only those parameters that
+were not in the standard option table or in the table specified by the
+options argument.
+If the modified argc is not zero,
+most applications simply print out the modified argv along with a message
+listing the allowable options.
+On UNIX-based systems,
+the application name is usually the final component of argv[0].
+If the synchronize resource is
+.ZN True
+for the specified application,
+.ZN XtDisplayInitialize
+calls the Xlib
+.ZN XSynchronize
+function to put Xlib into synchronous mode for this display connection.
+If the reverseVideo resource is
+.ZN True ,
+the \*(xI exchange
+.ZN XtDefaultForeground
+and
+.ZN XtDefaultBackground
+for widgets created on this display.
+(See Section 9.6.1).
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XtOpenDisplay
+function calls
+.ZN XOpenDisplay
+the specified display name.
+If display_string is NULL,
+.ZN XtOpenDisplay
+uses the current value of the \-display option specified in argv
+and if no display is specified in argv,
+uses the user's default display (on UNIX-based systems,
+this is the value of the DISPLAY environment variable).
+.LP
+If this succeeds, it then calls
+.ZN XtDisplayInitialize
+and pass it the opened display and
+the value of the \-name option specified in argv as the application name.
+If no name option is specified,
+it uses the application name passed to
+.ZN XtOpenDisplay .
+If the application name is NULL,
+it uses the last component of argv[0].
+.ZN XtOpenDisplay
+returns the newly opened display or NULL if it failed.
+.LP
+.ZN XtOpenDisplay
+is provided as a convenience to the application programmer.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XtCloseDisplay
+function closes the specified display as soon as it is safe to do so.
+If called from within an event dispatch (for example, a callback procedure),
+.ZN XtCloseDisplay
+does not close the display until the dispatch is complete.
+Note that applications need only call
+.ZN XtCloseDisplay
+if they are to continue executing after closing the display;
+otherwise, they should call
+.ZN XtDestroyApplicationContext
+or just exit.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XtDatabase
+function returns the fully merged resource database that was built by
+.ZN XtDisplayInitialize
+associated with the display that was passed in.
+If this display has not been initialized by
+.ZN XtDisplayInitialize ,
+the results are not defined.
+.LP
+The
+.ZN XtScreenDatabase
+function returns the fully merged resource database associated with the
+specified screen. If the \fIscreen\fP does not belong to a
+.ZN Display
+initilized by
+.ZN XtDisplayInitialize ,
+the results are undefined.
