I hoped, I can find a way to use both at once - Terminess for ascii, a
Japanese font for Japanese.
If specifying multiple fonts in xterm's font resource key at the same
time is not possible, you can achieve this exact behaviour in urvxt,
which supports font lookup lists. There, I have:
<snip urxvt-examples>
meaning, that if a CJK glyph can't be found in Fantasque Sans, it looks
up the glyph in the next listed font.
My understanding was that faceName and faceNameDoublesize are for that.
Doublesized characters like CJK-characters the font from
faceNameDoublesize is used and for normal sized characters the font from
faceName is used. It seems I am mistaken.
