I am using gnuchess and xboard under my linux kernel and Xfree86 3.1.
I re-compiled gnuchess to use a smaller address space, because my
disk was constantly swapping.  This worked fine.  Now I'm trying
to run a board that will fit on my 15" monitor, and turn off the
clock.  I've tried launching xboard like this:

xboard -big False -clock False

... which exits, giving me the "usage" message.  I also tried putting
an .Xdefaults file in my home directory with this line:

Xboard*big: False

... but this doesn't appear to have any effect.

What should I do?
