X11R6 allows the X server to request fonts from a
font server. A font server is specified by plac-
ing a "<trans>/<hostname>:<port_number>" entry
into the fontpath. For example, the fontpath
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,tcp/zok:7100"
tells the X server to first try to locate the font
in the local directory
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc. If that fails,
then request the font from the font server running
on machine zok listening for connections on TCP
port number 7100.
