Hi Everybody, I have written a program "kuplot" that runs inside an X-window terminal through a script:
#!/bin/sh if( /bin/ps | /bin/grep XWin ); then export DISPLAY=':0'; /bin/xterm -rightbar -sb -pob -title "kuplot secondary window" -e /bin/kuplot; else /bin/rm -f /tmp/.X*-lock /bin/xinit "/bin/xterm" -rightbar -sb -pob -title "kuplot primary window exit last" -e /bin/kuplot -- "/usr/bin/XWin" :0 -multiwindow -logfile /dev/null; fi If I start this script from within CYGWIN (both 64 and 32 bit) the VT menu appears at the top of my Xterm, and I can change the font size. If I start the program from the desktop icon, I do get the VT100 menu, but an error message of: /bin/xterm: cannot load font 'misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso10646-1' and a similar message if I try to change the font size. The program was installed into a separate folder at C:\Program files (x86) and within this I have folders bin ! quite a few of the /bin/*dll and /bin/*exe etc/X11 ! exact recursive copy of /etc/X11 in cygwin including fonts/* (only gzipped filesthough?) usr/share/terminfo ! exact recursive copy /usr/share/X11 ! exact recursive copy I seem to be missing the proper link to the VT100 fonts , where would I have to look for that? Other functionality of the VT Options like switching to a blinking cursor work fine.
