X11 double-click speed

window manager). I can't find out how to set the double-click speed.
Not even by grepping all the /usr/X11R6/man/man*/ files.
How do I do this?
TIA

Xvnc is an X server. It runs on the remote linux box, and is a bit
like the X memory-framebuffer server in that it draws to memory rather
than to a screen. Xvnc then accepts connections to itself using the
Remote Framebuffer Protocol, which means I can access it with the
MS Windows VNC client <http://www.google.com/search?q=vnc>.
VNC should pass through each mouse-click individually to the X server
and therfore I should set the double-click speed on the remote X
session, not the local Windows box. The question is, is this a
parameter to the X server? Something that should go in .Xdefaults? I
don't know.

AFAIK linux doesn't have a 'double click'
I take it you are remote viewing another linux box? or is it a windows
machine?
If a windows machine the double click speed would have to be set on that.

AFAIK, the X server has no concept of a "double click", it's a feature
implemented by window managers/environments. It may or may not also come
from the wdiget set. (It's not clear from reading various bits of code)
