+.SH NAME
+XWinrc\- XWin Server Resource Configuration File.
+
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The X Server for the X Window System on the Cygwin/X environment
+running on Microsoft Windows, \fIXWin\fP can be optionally configured
+with the \fIXWinrc\fP file. A system-wide configuration file should
+be placed in \fI/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/system.XWinrc\fP, a per-user file
+should be put at \fI$HOME/.XWinrc\fP. The \fIsystem.XWinrc\fP file is
+read only if no \fI$HOME/.XWinrc\fP exist.
+.PP
+With the \fI.XWinrc\fP configuration file it is possible to do the
+following:
+.PP
+1- To include items into the menu associated with the \fIXWin\fP icon
+which is in the \fIWindows\fP system tray. This feature functions in
+all XWin modes that have such tray icon.
+.PP
+2- To include items into the menu which is associated with the
+\fIWindows\fP window that \fIXWin -multiwindow\fP produces for each
+top-level X-window. That can be done both for the generic case and
+for particular programs.
+.PP
+3- To change the icon that is associated to the \fIWindows\fP window
+that \fIXWin -multiwindow\fP produces for each top-level X-window.
+Again, that can be done both for the generic case and for particular
+programs. The new icons associated should be \fIWindows\fP format
+icons \fI.ico\fP.
+
+
+.SH FILE FORMAT
+.B Keywords
+are case insensitive, but in this document they will be written
+completely capitalized.
+.PP
+.B Comments
+are legal pretty much anywhere you can have an end-of-line; they
+begin with "#" or "//" and go to the end-of-line.
+.PP
+Quote marks in strings are optional unless the string has included spaces.
+.PP
+There are three kinds of instructions: miscellaneous, menu, and icon.
