Actually, when I upgraded my laptop, I had the same issue. I think this has been in the trunk for a while: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r259 | gi1242 | 2008-02-17 14:44:18 -0800 (Sun, 17 Feb 2008) | 2 lines On second thought, set the minimum font size to be 1. This way, a user can just set the font sizes to be 1, and get a reasonable (live) "iconified" mrxvt. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r258 | gi1242 | 2008-02-17 14:19:27 -0800 (Sun, 17 Feb 2008) | 1 line Reduced the default minimum Xft size to 5. With high resolution displays of today (e.g. my new laptop), this is still quite readable. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ GI -- 100 THINGS I'D DO IF I EVER BECAME AN EVIL OVERLORD 89.

After all, the hero held the weapon and I took it from him.
