Hi all,
At some point an annoyance appeared with my xterm windows: The first time I
use [ctrl]+mouse click in any window, that xterm becomes unresponsive for
about 5 seconds with the CPU pegged to 100%. After the five seconds is up,
whatever shell spawned the xterm receives the following message:
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
After that all works normally (until I open the next xterm window).
Is there a way to diagnose what the problem is? I don't know what FontSet
string the error even refers to, let alone which parts of that string were
invalid. In any case, it really shouldn't take five seconds of hard CPU
crunching to detect and report an invalid input string.
This topic came up last year, iirc the issue was this:
