.hluresfile

This file changes PyNGL's default graphical display. For example, by default, when you run a PyNGL script, your background and foreground colors will be white and black, your fonts will be "helvetica", and your colormap will be "rainbow".

To change the default values of any of these resources, put the below ".hluresfile" file in your home directory of every machine you run PyNGL on, and modify as desired. Some other resources are set to show you how it's done.

You can modify this file and add other default changes that you want. Note that you cannot set the special "ngl" and "skt" resources in this file.
