Here's a puzzle for me, a very new user of dosemu (version 0.99.10 as supplied with redhat linux 6.0 and XFree86-3.3.3.1). I am running a program that requires a Hebrew font (the program is called MTR; any font that has the Hebrew alphabet at \200-\232 will do). I have such a font for X, called 10x20vgah, and use it by altering the 'dosemu.conf' line ($_X_font = "10x20vgah"). I start a terminal, 'gnome-terminal', and call 'xdos'. All is well, the program runs and displays Hebrew as it should. The puzzle: if I start dosemu from a different terminal, say 'xterm' or 'rxvt', nothing seems to allow the display of Hebrew characters. Whether I use the font declaration in 'dosemu.conf' or the '-fn' option on the command line when starting the terminal, the xdos window never in fact uses the correct font (although the terminal itself does). Why does it matter which terminal emulator I use, and is there any way to set it up so as to allow me to use another terminal? Any advice or educated guesses will be much appreciated. -- Michael Blaustein [EMAIL PROTECTED]
