By the way, to conclude this thread (maybe) I noticed I had added an item to my .vilemenu:-
C:Other Fonts B:Terminus 12:setv $font -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-* B:Terminus 14:setv $font -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-14-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-* B:Terminus 16:setv $font -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-* B:Terminus 17:setv $font -*-terminus-medium-*-*-*-17-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-* B:Unifont 16:setv $font -*-unifont-medium-*-*-*-16-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-* B:Unifont 17:setv $font -*-unifont-medium-*-*-*-17-*-*-*-c-*-iso10646-* They didn't work, but on looking in the Ubuntu repositories I found 'xfonts-terminus' which I had obviously installed in the past but lost when upgrading/re-installing. So I have installed xfonts-terminus and they're somewhat better than the defaults available, for me anyway. -- Chris Green
