Sorry my brain damaged querry on font setting.
I was confused to get comprehensive understanding
of Plan 9 rc script.
Now, I can followup a news article by Japanese
(using ktrans) on Charles's rin.
The solution was very simple, ie., adding just one
line before the line of "inews/checkart..." of rin's
rincompose script.
The line to be added is:
ktrans
:-).

This is my real problem.
I want to set a font(not default ) for Japanese input.
This is newly spawned window from Charles's rin
where I want to followup to someone by Japanese.
(You could run, in a window,
another 8? with a different font
Hmmm...

But even if you set the font environment variable,
8½ won't care. If I'm remembering correctly, you
can set a font for your entire 8½ session by setting
font=whatever before you run 8½ or by invoking it
as 8½ -f fontfile. But I don't think you can set the font
on a per window basis. (You could run, in a window,
another 8½ with a different font, but that's not
what you want to do, I think.)

Do you not want to just set $font globally? If it is indeed an rc script,
perhaps you could simply modify the shell script to test for an additional
argument, like -f <fontfile>?
Perhaps something like:
if (~ $2 '-f' && ~ $3 *.font) {
font=$3
wloc=$1
shift 3
*=($wloc $*)
}
At the beginning? Not knowing what the script looks like, I'm just
guessing...

How I can run /rc/bin/window with font options
like -f /lib/font/bit/pelm/unicode.9.font?
