Hello all, I'm wondering how to use remote fonts. I searched the Google groups for information and browsed "man xfs", but still don't know how to do that.
Here is my situation. I log in to a remote machine by "ssh -X" from a local machine on which an X server is running. Let's call the remote machine "rmt" and the local machine "lcl". When I type lcl$ ssh -X rmt.workplace.com [. . . login succesful. . .] rmt$ emacs & an emacs window appears on the screen of lcl. So far so good. But, all Japanese characters appear as blank rectangulars on the screen. English alphabets show perfectly. When I'm at work and directly use the console of rmt.workplace.com, those fonts are displayed flawlessly. Those fonts aren't installed on my home machine, lcl, but I suppose it's possible to use fonts of rmt from lcl. I also guess that xfs has something to do with my problem and I know /usr/bin/X11/xfs-xtt is running on rmt, which is a Debian 3.0r2 system. I don't want to install extra fonts on the home machine, because it varies. I sometimes use Mac OS X, sometimes Cygwin on Windows XP, and sometimes FreeBSD 5.2.1. (I may even buy a PC and install Debian on it in the future. :) Could someone help me? Thanks for your attention, Ryo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
