Subject: [9fans] scat and latin1.6
Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2004 13:03:09 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <aa5ff50cedc2fec987bba0db4a728ca0@plan9.ucalgary.ca> (raw)

scat uses the following font when plotting objects:

	/lib/font/bit/lucida/unicode.6.font

unicode.6.font defines 0x0 to 0xff to use the file named 'latin1.6'
which doesn't exist in /lib/font/bit/lucida.  there are two other
files, namely latin1.6.0 and latin1.6.1 with which scat works fine.

is there a bug in the .font file or has anything else changed?  was
cachechars ever supposed to find out the depth of the font image file
itself?  scat used to work a couple of years ago but i have no dumps
from that time so i have no idea whether the font was removed at some
point.

by the way, exporting "The Digitized Sky Survey, 102 CD-ROMs" as a
(grid) service on sources could be a good idea ☺
