Martin, Thank you for this. So it turns out that it seems to be my X11 qt3 fonts in general as I have the same problem when using qtconfig, even after rebuilding qt3, scrapping ~/.qt, and reinstalling qt3. Installing another X11 app, xephem, does not have this problem. Besides searching for this in the archives (which I admit that I haven't done yet), is there another obvious approach to tracking down my issues? I'm using http://static.macosforge.org/xquartz/downloads/X11-2.4.0_beta4.dmg (without the sparkle upgrade) if it matters. Thanks again for saving me a lot of heartache trying to fix something that wasn't broken, Robert ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-users
