That font encoding is pretty arbitrary - I chose the encoding that
Tamsyn already carried. I don't require too much more than ASCII
due to my locale (en_US), so I stuck with en_US.ISO8859-1. If

Eckehard is right - rehash your font library to see the changes.

I've done this previously (I have modified Tamsyn's 15pt version
and released it on the arch forums as 'Tamsyn2') and it works
very well - particularly in locales where you rarely use anything
outside of the ASCII charset. The basic idea is this - find a font

yay. this windings approach looks cool. Can you explain in a wiki/web
the steps to create such font file, and how to do your setup?

like swk or dzen.

Recently I've bumped into a thread with a nice solution to takbar icons in
dwm via editing any pcf font. So I converted pcf to bdf and with gbdfed util
created some new icons. After that I reconverted new bdf font to pcf and put
