Suhaib,

I have Fig and Fig-color on both machines.  When xfig runs on the
linux box it reads the defaults from the
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults directory on the linux box.  Likewise,
when it runs on the Windows98 machine, it reads its defaults from
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/app-defaults on the local cygwin installation.

(I can tell this from the fact that the two Fig-color's specify
different colors.)
