When I execute "fc-list : file" (as stated at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Font_Configuration )
one of the lines is: /usr/share/fonts/Type1/ufonts.com_ti92pluspc.pfb:
How do I now tell a particular class of xterm to use this font?
In the ~/.Xresources I have a class called "drlog", and so I have a line that starts:
---- drlog*VT100*font: ----
but what do I put after the colon to force this class to use the font in the file /usr/share/fonts/Type1/ufonts.com_ti92pluspc.pfb?
I never found any kind of step-by-step guide or even anything that suggested the solution that actually worked, but I suppose if one fumbles around at random there's a non-zero chance that one will stumble across the solution to a problem. The answer I discovered is not to use a font resource at all, but rather the faceName and a faceSize resources, setting the faceName resource to the basic name provided by KFontView when it is used to open the pfb font file. In this case that meant setting faceName to "Ti92Pluspc" (although the full name returned by KFontView was "Ti92Pluspc, Regular"). Doc -- Web: http://www.sff.net/people/N7DR
