I'm pretty sure one can set that permanently by putting something in one's .Xresources file. The manual suggests a "faceName" resource. (The X resources are a perfectly good way to specify detailed preferences, yet GNOME and KDE don't seem to use it, afaik) Aside, for whoever is unaware of it, this -fa option is using a different font system than the earlier mentioned -fn option. The -fa option concerns client-side, TrueType fonts, and the -fn option concerns traditional, X-server-side fonts. The font names/specifications are also quite different. -Olaf. -- ___ Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert -- You author it, and I'll reader it. \X/ rhialto/at/xs4all.nl -- Cetero censeo "authored" delendum esse. _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
