Only partly: Xft avoids giving useful error messages.

The output of fc-list is empty on this one particular Cygwin setup here, but with FC_DEBUG I get: $ FC_DEBUG=4095 fc-list | head FC_DEBUG=4095 Loading config file /etc/fonts/fonts.conf Add Subst match [test] pattern any family Equal "mono" [edit] Edit family Assign "monospace"; Add Subst match [test] FC_DEBUG is documented at http://www.freedesktop.org/software/fontconfig/fontconfig-user.html (first match for FC_DEBUG) but it consists of bits for features and 4095 turns on 12 of them. 128 might be the most important value. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 9+ messages in thread
