Hi,
I've been reading the XLFD specification:
https://www.x.org/archive/X11R7.6/doc/xorg-docs/specs/XLFD/xlfd.pdf
In several places, the specification mentions various things that the X
Consortium maintains a registry of. (Such as FOUNDRY or CHARSET_REGISTRY.)
Where can I find these registries that are/were maintained by the X Consortium?
I've done a lot of searching, and haven't found anything either on x.org or
elsewhere. At the moment, I'm most interested in finding out the possible
values that CHARSET_REGISTRY can have.
The X Consortium ceased to exist in 1996. The X.Org Foundation is the current
maintainer of the registries, though it has been many years since any new
entries were added. (We probably should actually add some for the more recent
extensions, like Composite, Damage, RandR, & DRI, but no one has bothered
yet. I don't even know where mail sent to xregis...@x.org goes these days.)
You can find the current Registry list at:
