Yes, you're right. My .bashrc read some global definition (/etc/profile).

And I also have a script that generates xresources and .gtkrc and so on. And the font I set in .gtkrc "-adobe-helvetica-medium-r-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*" is the same I use in FVWM (there is an iso10646 version of this). And it works, as mentioned, in FVWM.
