Adding fonts : xset
Adding new fonts to your X environment is often problematic.
Following points need to be remembered when adding new fonts in the user path:
- Fonts need be in gzip format so compress them if they aren't.
- Run mkfontdir to generate the fonts.dir file in the new font directory.
- xset +fp
fp rehash rereads the font database given by the current font path.
With these steps we are ready to use the fonts. We can see out current X settings using 'xset q' commnad
