I am writing a set of utilities, lets call it the "foo" toolkit,
that, for reasons of end-user flexibility, I would like to have
system-wide and per-user configuration files.

I was thinking about a /usr/local/lib/foo/app-defaults/*, for
the system configuration, and a ~/.foodefaults file for the
per-user configuration.

My thoughts are that I could write a set of wrapper functions that
clean up the interface to the RM (perhaps like is done in Xt?) and
use that.

Should I do that, or should I be looking at a different approach?
