Greetings,
Just started using acme (and sam). Cool.
I am using acme on a Mac form plan9port.
Within a file list one can right-click a listing in order to decend into
another directory or load a file. The problem is that neither work if a
space is contained within the name. Apparently, the rig
Greetings,
I am using acme on a Mac form plan9port.
The fonts that are used when the system comes up are usable. Also, I know
how to use the Font command. I tried several of the fonts (*.font) that
come with the system too.
The problem is that the fonts are low-res and pixilated (when compared
try "acme -a -f /mnt/font/Menlo-Regular/12a/font"
run the fontsrv command and run '9p ls font' to see what's available
on your mac.

Out of curiosity, what Mac version are you on, Blake?

I am running a 17" MacBook Pro with OS/X 10.6.8.
I am running plan9port on my Mac, not Plan-9 or Inferno so there is no
fontsrv. I can, however, run:
find /usr/local/plan9port/font -name '*.font'
to see what is available. Currently, there are 242 available. The top

Okay that explains a lot. I've had trouble with acme on Mac 10.7 and 10.8

1 bit fonts are legible. this is a feature.

You can turn the pixilation in the advantage by using Terminus font -
one of my favorites
When I installed p9ports in my new Macbook Air (around 4 months ago),
fontsrv didn't compile "out of the box," I had to compile it separately.
For me all available fonts read perfectly well and sharp (Mac OS X 10.9 on
Air 13" and Mac OS X 10.6.8 on Macbook 13")

I checked. fontsrv didn't compile. I'm sure I can get it to compile but I
don't see the point. Acme comes up, I can change fonts, etc.. What will
fontsrv buy me?
Incidentally, when I look on the net at picture or videos of acme, the
fonts they show on all of those are pixilated too. See:

Check here:

The slight pixelation comes from the video compression. The font is Monaco,
on my old Macbook
How are you exactly changing fonts, though?

Your font does look better than what I have (but not perfect).
Monaco didn't come with 9p9. Where did you get that?
I am changing font via the Acme Font command on the tag line; i.e.
Font /usr/local/plan9port/font/fixed/unicode.9x15B.font
It is changing the font. The change is obvious.

It's a matter of taste, but I prefer the sharpness of the 1 bit fonts. The gray,
fuzzy stuff eventually takes a toll on my eyes.

In my current computer the fonts look as crisp as any native Mac app,
except for slashes where some jagginess can be seen on close inspection.
Usually I'm not close enough to the computer to notice, but large fonts
have this (currently I'm using Cochin 20 and AnonymousPro 16) To get Monaco

The point is that fontsrv allows p9p programs (including acme) to use
whatever true-type font you already have on the system.

Perhaps, but I like to think differences of opinion don't necessarily
indicate physical disability.

A running joke is that prolonged used of Plan 9 damages your eyesight
until you no longer care what anything looks like. Presumably, at this
point, lucm/unicode.
Okay. I build and installed fontsrv. I have it running. Now when I do:
9p ls font
it lists all the fonts on my system. One of them is "Courier". From acme,
I tried:
Font Courier
But that doesn't work. It tells me:
can't open font file Courier: No such file or directory
It seems fontsrv

I see. Sorry. I tried two different ones and I got:

Sorry again. Re-read first post. I forgot the "12a/font" part since it
wasn't displayed in the ls. Now it works as I had hoped. This totally
answers my question.
Thank you all!

Interesting. On the bottom it says fontsrv has no support for X11. Is
there a way to use the fonts that come with Linux?
Another question. Is there a way to use a specific font with sam?
Thanks!

It does support X11 now.
