Since I'm a non-Debian user, I'm not sure what the analog to "apt-get" and "apt-cache" would be for me (RedHat 8.0). I guess that what you're saying is that I need to install all standard(?) fonts whose names start with the string "xfonts", but not anything whose name contains the string "xfonts-bochs". Fair enough, but are there any fonts in particular that I should have? At the moment, it will probably be easier for me to locate specific fonts than to do the kind of global search-and-installation that you suggested. Of course, I could always just switch to Debian :) ... --=20 Lloyd Zusman ljz@asfast.com
