- When we upgraded to Motif, we had similar problems. We fixed the problem
- by adding the following lines to the DECW$SYSTEM_DEFAULTS:DECW$TERMINAL.DAT
- resource file:
-
- DECW$TERMINAL.main.terminal.littleFontSetName:
- -*-Terminal-*-*-*--*-100-*-*-*-*-*-*
- DECW$TERMINAL.main.terminal.bigFontSetName:
- -*-Terminal-*-*-*--*-140-*-*-*-*-*-*
-
- (note that each of these is all on one line, not split like I have shown
- them here). If you want to redefine the German standard font as well,
- you'll need to add something similar to this (which I haven't tried):
-
- DECW$TERMINAL.main.terminal.gsFontSetName:
- -*-Terminal-*-*-*-GS-*-100-*-*-*-*-*-*
-
- The important parameters (should you care to adjust them) are the 100 and
- 140 in the Xwindow font strings.
