Maybe someone suggested this but your major problem may be that you need to modify your font path to use higher res fonts, see xset(1) but I use something like (cut+paste, dejavu and misc are irrelevant but for pedagological sake):
xset fp+ /usr/share/X11/fonts/100dpi,/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/,/usr/share/X11/fonts/misc xset fp rehash which can go in some *rc file or be run manually or from a shell script. If you need higher res than 100dpi you'll have to hunt those down first or maybe you can prefer TrueType fonts not sure that works in the general case. -- -Barry Shein Software Tool & Die | b...@theworld.com | http://www.TheWorld.com Purveyors to the Trade | Voice: +1 617-STD-WRLD | 800-THE-WRLD The World: Since 1989 | A Public Information Utility | *oo* -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
