how do I get Sawfishs current font in "-*-courier-medium-r-normal-*-*-120-75-*
format?
That isn't going to work. Fonts in
-*-courier-medium-r-normal-*-*-120-75-* format are provided by the X
server, and text is drawn by the server. Pango fonts are provided by the
client, and text is drawn by the client. They are two completely
different methods for outputting text, and may make completely different
sets of fonts available. The x_draw_string function calls the
appropriate text output function for the specified font. You cannot
unconditionally replace it with XDrawText unless it only has to work
with fonts available on the X server.
