Sorry, I don't understand your opinion well. You said that "-m-" and "-c-" fonts should be exactly fixed-width, without negative expand nor offset. Then, what fonts should terminal emulators (and other column- based softwares) use? "-m-*-tis620-0" or "-c-*-tis620-0" fonts which are exactly fixed-width? Or, "-p-*-tis620-0" with negative expand but virtually fixed-width? I read your web page that advocate usage of "tis620-0" fonts instead of "tis620.xxxx-x" fonts. However, the page doesn't mention detailed technical design of such fonts. (The page http://linux.thai.net/~thep/th-xwindow/ seems not accessable now. Could you please check the page?) Anyway, I think that native Thai people should have a political voice for the detailed technical design of tis620.0 fonts, because other people (including I) don't know how deeply Thai people depend on the de-facto standard of fonts. Of course, if Thai people think the modification of the fonts doesn't cost very much, we (people from all over the world) can attend the discussion on the detailed technical design of Thai fonts. --- Tomohiro KUBOTA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/ "Introduction to I18N" http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/intro-i18n/ _______________________________________________ I18n mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/i18n
