A nice tip! |

I have a question that is a little OT. I've been using "bitstream |
| 12 |
vera sans mono" for my mlterm because it soo. . . much easier on my |
| 13 |
old eyes than some of the other fonts, but it has poor coverage of |
| 14 |
non-Latin fonts, so I am looking at trying one of the "terminus" |
| 15 |
fonts, which look pretty good, or the "unifont", for more complete |
| 16 |
coverage. |

Problem is, I can't get X to recognize that I emerged those fonts. |
| 19 |
Neither of them appear in "xlsfonts" or "xfontsel". I've tried |
| 20 |
various combinations of mkfontdir, mkfontscale, xset, all to no avail. |

Any suggestions? |
