ok - I guess the problem is that I'm passing an "*" in the column where 70/75/80 appear, and font server is giving me 75 rather than the 80 that would be more correct: xtermLoadFont normal 8x13 ...derived bold -Misc-Fixed-bold-R-Normal--13-120-75-75-C-*-ISO8859-1 same_font_size height 13/13, min 8/7 max 8/7 ...got a matching bold font same_font_size height 13/13, min 8/7 max 8/7 Proportional font! normal 8/8, bold 7/7 (The "/7" parts would be "/8" if it had matched 8x13bold). -- Thomas E.
