On plan9port, the edges of characters are jagged when looked at
up close. Not antialiased. [*]
Now the text on a native Plan 9 system is going to be the
same way; right?
Thank you in advance.
[*] I last downloaded plan9port almost a year ago, July 2006, but
it is unlikely that it has changed since then in a way that is
relevant to my question.

1. download /n/sources/contrib/quanstro/antialias.tar
2. unpack in $PLAN9/font.
3. set font = $PLAN9/font/cyberbit/mod14.font in .xinitrc.
simple stems to having subpixel antilaised fonts with plan 9
1. download /n/sources/contrib/quanstro/antialias.tar
2. unpack in /lib/font/bit
3. set font = /lib/font/bit/cyberbit/mod14.font in $home/lib/profile.
