Alright, I think I have a good handle on what is going on, where it is going on, and why that is so. I also see that the font aliases have locale encoded right into their names. Disregard the request for information. I meant /usr/dt/config/xfonts, of course. And of course, by CDE standard practice, you would copy the file you want to override into the /etc/dt structure and make your changes there. So, shouldn't the wiki page I referenced instruct the user to do this (if necessary), rather than editing some system file? Or am I missing something? -mrt ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ cdesktopenv-devel mailing list cdesktopenv-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/cdesktopenv-devel
