I think XMMS is a GTK 1 application, and it's fonts will be that bad because it doesn't use the GTK 2 libraries which can render fonts in an anti-aliased manner (using a backend I don't recall). For example, see this for what I mean: http://alx14.free.fr/gtkaa/ So, unless someone corrects this statement, XMMS preferences etc. will have bad fonts! :-) Kumar -- Kumar Appaiah, 458, Jamuna Hostel, Indian Institute of Technology Madras, Chennai - 600 036
