Hello,

I would like to start Emacs without loading the X resources from
/usr/share/X11/app-defaults/Emacs. It seems that "--name myname" should
do that, but using this option, the X resources are still loaded.

What is the right way, to avoid loading these X resources please?

My workaround: "emacs -Q -user peter"

TIA for any hints,
-- 
           Peter
