I have the program. But I've already discovered the font which XTerm
claims to be using. Using appres I can see that it claims to be using
"-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-130-75-75-c-70-iso10646-1" and xfontsel
does show that font exists. But if I specify that font using the Xterm
"-fa" option, it doesn't render the same as selecting the "Small" font
using CTRL-rightmouse.
I can make rendering appear *almost* the same by adding the "-fs 9.0"
option to the command line. At first glance that seems identical but
examing with xmag shows a difference. Selecting "Small" gets a crisp
font but using "-fa" and "-fs" gets one with lots of half-tones.
It appears that XTerm must be getting its font in some non-standard way.
Any XTerm experts here?
