DESCRIPTION
The 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.
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.
Note that the widget returned by XtAppCreateShell has the WM_COMMAND
property set for session managers (see Chapter 4).
