Is > there a way to diagnose which fonts/charsets are still missing? Hmm. You could write a small test application which calls XCreateFontSet() with the base font of "*" and reports the list of missing charsets returned. It also seems that twm reports these problems in a slightly more useful fashion than libXt (saying "font for charset is lacking"), so running that (against an X server not started in multiwindow mode) might serve just as well. -- Jon TURNEY Volunteer Cygwin/X X Server maintainer -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/ FAQ: http://x.cygwin.com/docs/faq/
