Courier has been a standard fixed width font for decades, I think it was on ADM-3s. All the linux distros I've run allowed simple font additions, so adding "*-courier-medium-r-normal--*-120-*" is the easiest course. I'd bet that the two fonts are indistinguishable, but some worrywart had to create a 'totally free' font to earn a niche. Thanks Blake, on my old CMUCL, (ed) never worked, but it was unimportant, but I found that on the newer computer with ECL, (ed) works and I have a need for that now. I'm sure I would have written some kludge and you have saved me from that! ;-) r _______________________________________________ cmucl-help mailing list [email protected] https://lists.zs64.net/mailman/listinfo/cmucl-help
