Package: xfonts-terminus
Version: 4.32-1
Severity: wishlist
Tags: upstream

Trying to read a .po file to check is a bug was fixed, when I look at:

| msgid "attempt to use unsupported feature: `%s'"
| msgstr "サポートされていない機能を使おうとしています: `%s'"

I see something like:

| msgid "attempt to use unsupported feature: `%s'"
| msgstr "??????????????????: `%s'"

except the question-marks are double width.  This is probably because
my Xresources contains

        *VT100.font:    terminus-24

When I right-click on my xterm with ctrl held, I see I am viewing this
with the "default" font.  Switching to the "large" font makes the
characters show up in Japanese.

Questions:

 1) Is there an existing font covering Japanese characters that goes
    nicely with terminus?  Is fontconfig be set up to use it?  Will
    xterm notice?

 2) If so, can we make the package to install easily discoverable
    somehow?

 3) Either way, what is needed to add a character set to terminus
    itself?  Is there documentation on this somewhere?  Can I help
    when a character is missing?

While I'm curious about (3), I'd be happy enough if (1) is solved,
so please feel free to reassign this if a solution involving another
package is possible.

Thanks for terminus.  I love it. :)
Jonathan
