did you test the above? AFAIK, on X11 it will _not_ work. Depending on 
the particular GUI flavour (and possibly on the same machine) you need 
something ending in "\ 12" for a GTK2 GUI, in ":s12" for a Photon GUI, 
and an |XLFD| (which is a long dash-separated string with no spaces or 
colons in it) for other X11 GUIs such as Athena, Motif or GTK1 (but not 
the obsolete kvim which might still be included in some Linux 
distributions, and uses another format again); using the "wrong" one 
won't work.
