Hi:
I would like to be able to customize my programs differently while
running on different machines. (for example, I may like my default
xterm font to be 'x when I login from a lisp machine, but 'y when I
login from some other machine -- in both cases, the program xterm may
be running on the same machine, so there would have to be a way of
differentiating at the server level).

I am told there is no way to do this in V10. Can anyone working on the
Xlib or Toolkit for v11 tell me if this would be possible under V11
and if so, how?

Thanks,
-Sundar
