SAS Companion for UNIX Environments

X Resources

You can now specify more resources, such as SAS.startSessionManager, SAS.wsaveAllExit, SAS.awsResizePolicy, and SAS.isToolBoxPersistent, through the Preferences dialog.
The Preferences dialog in Version 8 has an additional tab, Results, that allows you to set options that control the SAS Output Delivery System.
In Release 6.12, you could use the Resource Helper (reshelper) to customize colors, keys, and fonts. In Version 7, you use the Font dialog to customize your fonts. However, you can still use reshelper to customize colors and keys.
