.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.ZN XtAppCreateShell
function saves the specified application name and application class 
for qualifying all widget resource specifiers.
The application name and application class are used as the left-most components
in all widget resource names for this application.
.ZN XtAppCreateShell
should be used to create a new logical application within a program
or to create a shell on another display.
In the first case, 
it allows the specification of a new root in the resource hierarchy.
In the second case,
it uses the resource database associated with the other display.
.LP
Note that the widget returned by
.ZN XtAppCreateShell
has the \s-1WM_COMMAND\s+1
property set for session managers (see Chapter 4).
