Hi,
I finally managed to change my Eterm fonts on my own! For those who
want to know the magic behind font manipulation:
Let's say you have a terminalpants.pcf fonts, then all you have to do is
to place it in ~/.fonts . Then run
mkfontdir ~/.fonts
then place "xset +fp ~/.fonts" in ~/.Xclients-default (Redhat 9!)
restart X and look in the ~/.fonts directory, You'll see a file named
fonts.dir
If you "cat fonts.dir", you'll see something like
-------------------------------------------------------------------
terminalpants.pcf
-ppants-terminalpants-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Now this is the magic incantation to load the fonts (that I've been
searching for a while!)
an
Eterm -F -ppants-terminalpants-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1
would load the new fonts and make Eterm look cool! :-)
With kind regards,
Didier
