The oldest known script is sumerian cuneiform. I searched for free fonts and found George Douros fonts which were included in Debian after an wnpp. Fortunately the fonts use Unicode encoding which I prefer since I studied in Japan. According to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_cuneiform) sumerian cuneiform are included since Unicode 5.0. > but TrueType fonts use a different interface, which apparently > does not have the same limitation (that's how xfd is able to display > the font). Is it possibe to use this functionality in xterm? -- GMX FreeMail: 1 GB Postfach, 5 E-Mail-Adressen, 10 Free SMS.
