Commenting out the font line had no effect; I tried using xrdb -merge, which failed as URxvt-local was missing. I merged it filtering the include line out, but again it failed. With the font line above, it fails with: urxvt: unable to load base fontset, please specify a valid one using -fn, aborting. > I see, however, that your latin characters are *not* Xft, and if this is > what you want to keep, you would want to fall back in the reverse order: > > URxvt.font: > -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1,xft:Mono:pixelsize=13 > > I'm not sure if this is at all correct; I'm going to look into the > auto-selection code.
