Writing program scripts for A+ with Xemacs requires using a special font.
I have added the required fonts to /usr/share/fonts/misc
and updated /usr/share/fonts/misc/fonts.alias
I have rerun "mkfontdir" successfully
When I execute the command
xset fp rehash
I get the message:
xset: unable to open display ""
If I execute the command
xset fp default
I get the same message:
xset: unable to open display ""
Any suggestions?

Thanks Mark (for the Cygwin/X suggestions).
I went the X-route in Cygwin only because that is what I did in Gentoo.
But Xemacs works perfectly well in Cygwin w/o starting an X-server.
So, the X-server appears to be a needless step.
However, the fonts displayed by Xemacs (when not using X-server)
are quite different than the fonts (with X-server).
I suspect that the fonts (when not using X-server) are stored in a
completely different place.
(not in /usr/share/fonts/misc)
Where does Xemacs get its fonts (when not using X-server)?
