I always wondered why people spend so much time configuring all aspects of a look, but do not improve such basic thing like their terminal. If a bold font is not specified using -fb option (or similar), than the terminal usually makes the bold font itself from the normal one. This looks pretty ugly, the real bold font is better. So, for example, if someone starts xterm like this: xterm -geometry 80x40 -sb +sk -si -sl 4096 -j -ls +lc -fn 7x14 the following addition makes it look nicer: xterm -geometry 80x40 -sb +sk -si -sl 4096 -j -ls +lc -fn 7x14 -fb 7x14bold Another issue, actually a question. Maybe someone here knows the answer. It seems that in xterm from XFree86-4.3.0, if you use +bdc or resource: XTerm*colorBDMode: true then the bold font is not used, only the bold color is used. In 4.2.x both bold color and font were used and I like this. Is this a bug or a new (mis)feature? Is there a way to have both this setting and bold font?
