XResourceManagerString(3) XLIB FUNCTIONS XResourceManagerString(3)NAME
XResourceManagerString, XScreenResourceString - obtain server resource properties
SYNTAX
char *XResourceManagerString(Display *display);
char *XScreenResourceString(Screen *screen);
ARGUMENTS
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
screen Specifies the screen.
DESCRIPTION
The XResourceManagerString function returns the RESOURCE_MANAGER property from the server's root window of screen zero, which was returned
when the connection was opened using XOpenDisplay. The property is converted from type STRING to the current locale. The conversion is
identical to that produced by XmbTextPropertyToTextList for a single element STRING property. The returned string is owned by Xlib and
should not be freed by the client. The property value must be in a format that is acceptable to XrmGetStringDatabase. If no property
exists, NULL is returned.
The XScreenResourceString function returns the SCREEN_RESOURCES property from the root window of the specified screen. The property is
converted from type STRING to the current locale. The conversion is identical to that produced by XmbTextPropertyToTextList for a single
element STRING property. The property value must be in a format that is acceptable to XrmGetStringDatabase. If no property exists, NULL
is returned. The caller is responsible for freeing the returned string by using XFree.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it
