Re: menubar face?
Under windows, it's more complicated than changing a resource, but it's
really not very difficult. Especially if all menu items are drawn with
the same face. You just set MF_OWNERDRAW when creating the menu items,
and then handle the WM_MEASUREITEM and WM_DRAWITEM messages. (Much like
any other "owner draw" item under windows. In fact, most of the code can
be salvaged from elsewhere.)
Only took about 5 minutes to hack a menu in one of my programs to draw in
different faces (a different face for each line).

changing
x resources is easy from within the xemacs c code.
