The resource's value should be a string of +the form CLASS-DEPTH, where CLASS is the name of the visual class, and +depth is its color depth. Valid visual class names are + + TrueColor + PseudoColor + DirectColor + StaticColor + GrayScale + StaticGray + +Visual class names specified as X resource are case-insensitive, i.e. +`pseudocolor', `Pseudocolor' and `PseudoColor' all have the same +meaning. + +The program `xdpyinfo' can used to list the visual classes supported +on your display, and which depths they have. If `visualClass' is not +specified, Emacs uses the display's default visual. + +*** The X resource `privateColormap', class `PrivateColormap', +specifies that Emacs should use a private colormap if it is using the +default visual, and that visual is of class PseudoColor. Recognized +resource values are `true' or `on'. + ** `movemail' defaults to supporting POP. You can turn this off using the --without-pop configure option, should that be necessary.
