Well, the new xfs with X4 does support TrueType fonts. Use 'mkttfdir' in the fttools package to make a fonts.dir file in /usr/share/fonts/truetype. Add the truetype path to the config file for xfs and restart it. xfstt then becomes redundant. -- #! /bin/sh # ppp-address: What's my Internet Address for ppp0 ? /sbin/ifconfig ppp0 2> /dev/null | grep 'inet addr:' | sed \ 's=.*inet addr\:\([0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\.[0-9]\{1,3\}\).*=\1='
