You need to set the font of gnoterm to Akaash But, for the terminal, a Monospaced font is reqd. It's a bad idea to make the English glyphs MonoSpaced - because they will look absolutely terrible :D However, the English glyphs that are present now do not look very good either - so, i will change these in fact, i will be making some *major* changes in the font this week - a lot of extra glyphs - restructuring of the OT tables, etc if everything goes ok - i will be releasing it within the next sunday (i have my SAT II on saturday - so don't be much sure :) -iti- sdg ____________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from this list [Bangla Penguin] send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with 'unsubscribe banglapenguin' in the subjectline and body.
