Hi Christopher, I found this hard to get working myself! Here's the relevant code from my config:
;; Set the font. Note that since I'm using a TTF font, I need to first ;; load the ttf-fonts module, then (and this was hard to figure out!) ;; I need to call xft:cache-fonts or xft is unable to locate the ;; Monoid font. (load-stump-contrib-module "util/ttf-fonts") (xft:cache-fonts) (defparameter *font* (make-instance 'xft:font :family "Monoid" :subfamily "Retina" :size 12) "Font specification for stumpwm windows.") (set-font *font*) Hope that helps!
