- This is a question that perhaps will only reveal the level of
- my ignorance: why can one use only fixed fonts in xterm? What are the
- extra problems involved in arranging things so variable character width
- fonts can be used? I mean, in such a way that the output looks nice on
- the screen.

- Thanks so much in advance.
