So yesterday, after many days of no updates, suddenly there were 722 updates for testing. My practice is to do them in small batches -- I've got it down to 195 remaining.
At least one of those batches involved fonts. Today I fired up a python script that I wrote many years ago that specified 'courier' as a font because I needed a monospace font. That program now uses some proportional font. (Actually I've changed the code to specify 'luxi mono' so at least I've got a mono font.) Just now I ran 'lp somefile.txt' and again, the font used was something much bigger than the 'courier 10' I've been getting forever. How do I get my courier back? Why do basic default settings get changed? -- "The dichotomy between personal liberties and property rights is a false one. Property does not have rights. People have rights. ... In fact, a fundamental interdependence exists between the personal right to liberty and the personal right to property." -- Potter Stewart, U.S. Supreme Court Justice, Lynch v.
