Thanks for all your replies. I'm as sure as I can be that I have the fonts
installed, and that nanoX and nxlib are pointed to the right place to find
them. I have complied without xft and with, made no difference. The thing that
is confusing me most is that the symbols didn't work if I tried to display
@cirlce that wouldn't work either, that can't be a font issue surely? Would
that be a problem with nanoX being non standard?
Also if I wrote nanoX programs they would display text no problem. Next week I
will try using kdrive instead of nanoX and see if that works.
Cheers
Stuart.
