huge font as default?
Hi, I work with Cygwin/X in a laptop using 1600x1200 pixels. As a result, the Xtern fonts appear really small, and I always change to the huge setting (CTRL+right-click, HUGE). I tried changing the default font, but whenever I change font size, for example, the default font comes back. (I imagine not all fonts have all sizes...) So, my question is just: Is there any way to open the Xterm already with the 'huge font, by default? Thanks, Gustavo Seabra. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
RE: huge font as default?
You can change the starting font by adding it to the file ~/.Xresources. I use the line XTerm.*.font: 9x15 to get the appearance I want (I think this is the same as the Large font). Use the command xlsfonts to get a complete list of available fonts.

Use the command xlsfonts to get a complete list of available fonts. 10x20 and 12x24 are usually available as fixed fonts. -- Thomas E.
