Package: mrxvt Version: 0.5.2+svn235-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch
I have good eyes and a crisp monitor, and I like my terminals small and plentiful. The mrxvt ships with a minimum font size that is very large, making it unusable for me for everyday use, and on the occasion that I want to shrink it down to something so small I can notice activity but not detail (like xterm's "unreadable" size), I can't do that either. Looking at the source code, this is a one line fix, as if Jimmy had it in mind when he wrote the limitation. I don't understand the need for such a limitation, so I would like to propose removing it. Patch follows. --- feature.h.dpkg 2007-05-15 02:36:53.000000000 -0400 +++ feature.h 2007-11-30 13:50:19.554324747 -0500 @@ -480,7 +480,7 @@ #define DEFAULT_MIN_VISIBLE_TABS (6) /* Minimum Xft font size (pixel) */ -#define MIN_XFT_FONT_SIZE (8) +#define MIN_XFT_FONT_SIZE (1) /* Default Xft font name and size */ #define DEFAULT_XFT_FONT_SIZE (12) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (995, 'testing'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages mrxvt depends on: ii libc6 2.6.1-1+b1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libfontconfig1 2.4.2-1.2 generic font configuration library ii libice6 2:1.0.4-1 X11 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libjpeg62 6b-14 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG ii libpng12-0 1.2.15~beta5-3 PNG library - runtime ii libsm6 2:1.0.3-1+b1 X11 Session Management library ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxft2 2.1.12-2 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxpm4 1:3.5.7-1 X11 pixmap library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.4-1 X Rendering Extension client libra ii mrxvt-common 0.5.2+svn235-1 lightweight multi-tabbed X termina ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-6 compression library - runtime mrxvt recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
