Ok. I tried this way, too.

If I try it exactly as written, I have the same problem as I described
in response to Benavento's e-mail, i.e.
abaco: openfont: bad height or ascent in font file
and more, there is a note about suicide.

When I do 'bind -b' instead, abaco starts, but often complains (there
is a short-lasting note anytime I try to scroll):
bad character rune set for 0x0000 in /lib/font/bit/lucidasans/passwd.6.font
Otherwise fonts are nicer. Nonetheless, some letters are missing, I
see rectangles (I speak Czech and the language uses quite a few
accented characters).

Any explanation or help as to what is wrong?
