Several of the submenu fonts are covered in the resources file provided
previously. As I prefer having my X resources managed uniformly, I've
created (or modified -- don't recall) a seperate file, xfree86-common,
as follows:
<begin xfree86-comon>
! /etc/X11/Xresources/xfree86-common
! load color-specific resources for clients that have them
#ifdef COLOR
*customization: -color
#endif
! make Xaw (Athena widget set) clients understand the delete key
! this causes problems with some non-Xaw apps, use with care
! *Text.translations: #override ~Shift ~Meta <Key>Delete:
delete-next-character()
! Use fixed fonts for all menus and stuff. Mostly affects Motif and
! Lesstif apps.
*fontList: fixed
*XmTextField.fontList: fixed
*XmText.fontList: fixed
*XmList*fontList: fixed
*popup*fontList: fixed
<begin xfree86-comon>
IIRC, I isolated most of these widget references with editres, while
poking through a couple of X clients. I still get the odd app which
doesn't listen to me (RealPlayer, IIRC), but most behave themselves.
