Package: xterm Version: 330-1 Severity: normal Having an xterm with "Allow font ops" being enabled, it happens to quit after some of these:
* use "xtermcontrol --font=<N>" with <N> being eg. 0 or 5 * choose a different size from the font menu "xterm" doesn't crash, it just gives the above message and quits - which would've been unfortunate, hadn't I be running tmux at the time ;) Still, simply quitting just because the user asks for a different font size is bad behaviour - and real data might be lost (generated but not-yet-saved console output). What I really wanted to achieve was to switch programmatically between different configured font sizes; this doesn't seem to work as expected for me. I guess this is a bit buggy as well. (Using "--font=5" it only becomes a bit larger, "--font=1" keeps it the same, "--font=3" has no effect, and then choosing a different size in the menu made my xterm quit again...)
