After the five seconds is up, whatever shell spawned the xterm receives the following message: > Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion After that all works normally (until I open the next xterm window). Is there a way to diagnose what the problem is? I don't know what FontSet string the error even refers to, let alone which parts of that string were invalid. In any case, it really shouldn't take five seconds of hard CPU crunching to detect and report an invalid input string. I found one message from last year's archives that mentioned certain Japanese fonts, but in that case they knew which fonts were missing. I'd rather not go installing every font known to man just in hopes of catching the missing one. Thoughts?
