I can perfectly well start an xterm like this: xterm -fa "Bitstream Vera Mono" -fs 10
And actually get the Bitstream Vera Mono font in the selected size. But, xlsfonts and xfontsel don't show anything like this, and trying something like: XTerm*font: Bitstream Vera Mono in my .Xresources gets me messages like: xterm: unable to open font "Bitstream Vera Mono", trying "fixed".... I've tried '' and "" as quotes around the font name, and didn't get anywhere. Does anyone know how I can specify a TrueType font in my .Xresources file? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
