     NAME
          xktalk - Xinet GUI for The X Window System

     SYNOPSIS
          /usr/etc/appletalk/xktalk [ -notroot ] [ -toolkitoption ...
          ]

     DESCRIPTION
          The program xktalk is an X11/Motif client that handles GUI
          administration of Xinet software.  See the K-Talk
          Administrator's Guide for more information on running
          xktalk.

          The only option xktalk accepts that is not an X Toolkit
          option is -notroot.  When a user other than the super-user
          (root) runs xktalk, they are prompted to supply the super-
          user password if they want system-administrator privileges.
          If the -notroot option is given on xktalk's command line,
          that prompt dialog box will not appear, and xktalk will be
          unprivileged.

          This program should not be run when X server resources are
          not available to it.  The default english resources are
          usually in the file /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults/Xinet, but may
          be elsewhere depending on your X server and user
          environment.  This is a locale-aware program and will serve
          any locale for which there is a /usr/lib/X11/locale/app-
          defaults/Xinet file.  These resources may also be made
          available via the xrdb(1) program.  You will know if the
          resources have been properly initialized if the lower-
          right-most button in the main window is labeled ``Close''
          (or the non-english equivalent) instead of ``close.''

          In addition to the standard set of Toolkit and Motif
          resources, xktalk accepts a few additional resources that
          reset internal table limits.  All of these default values
          should already be in the Xinet application defaults file.
          Resource              Default

          Xinet.maxatlog        81920   bytes at end of system log file to show
          ktalk.maxObjects        600   items to display in AppleTalk browser
          print.maxPrinterlog   81920   bytes at end of a print queue's log to show

          kfs.maxServers          260   AppleShare servers to see when adding

          xktalk also supports special printing options via a
          configurable set of resources.  These resources set the name
          of a printer type and the program to call to get information
          about printing to the device.  Contact Xinet for details
          about the calling sequence and information syntax.  The
          resouces consist of the following:
          print.maxRIPs:                 num
          print.lang_str.RIPname_0:      label to display
          print.lang_str.RIPcmd_0:       command line for probing RIP
           . . .
          print.lang_str.RIPname_num-1:  label to display
          print.lang_str.RIPcmd_num-1:   command line for probing RIP
