I accidentally rm'd my .Xdefaults and naturally would like it back. Normally of course I'd be SOL but I figure it's still somewhere because when I open a terminal it opens with the configuration from that deleted file. So at the moment I'm trying to find where that loaded .Xdefaults is so I can hopefully copy it back into a new file.

Is this even possible? I feel it should be.
