Another really good font offered by many Linux distros and preferred by programmers is "DejaVu Sans Mono". Prior to this, I also used Bitstream's Vera Sans Mono. Using rxvt/urxvt terminal: -fn "xft:DejaVu Sans Mono:size=12" Or: -fn "xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:size=13" -- Roger http://rogerx.freeshell.org/ _______________________________________________ Pgubook-readers mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pgubook-readers
