That sounds like what is being reported, but since I didn't touch _that_ part of the logic, I'm left with the impression that you have a slightly different set of fonts installed than I - and the modifications I made to the XLFD wildcards are breaking in that case. If I had a debug-trace from xterm (configure --enable-trace), I could probably see exactly what the problem is. Since it's working fine for me, it'll otherwise be a while until I stumble over the problem. -- Thomas E. Dickey http://invisible-island.net ftp://invisible-island.net
