How can I tell 9term to use my Unicode font etl16-unicode.bdf¹? I am
using 9term 1.6.5 of 1995-11-28 which I believe is the latest release.
When I start 9term without any -p9font it uses some default font and I
only get to see the ISO-8859-1 characters. When I start it with
xset fp+ /usr/plan9/Xg/bdf/
9term -p9font /usr/plan9/Xg/lucm/unicode.9.font &
I get to see a lot more Unicode characters from Bigelow & Holmes'
Lucida Sans Unicode font like Cyrillic and many symbols.
But when I create my own etl.9.font with the content
18 14
0x0000 0xffff -ETL-Fixed-Medium-R-Normal--16-160-72-72-C-80-ISO10646-1
9term -p9font etl.9.font opens a white window but dies immediately
with a SIGSEGV segmentation fault :(
So does wily which also uses Rob Pike's libXg.
Any idea what I might be doing wrong?
Gratefully, Roman http://czyborra.com/
