It *can* be installed to overwrite Fixed 9x18/18x18ko as well (the fixedmir.ed script patches the files to use the Fixed font names, and possibly other (compatibility) changes), but does not need to be (FixedMisc uses mirf16v8.bdf, mirf18fw.bdf, mirf18hw.bdf as names whereas Fixed uses 9x18.bdf, 18x18ko.bdf, and does not have a matching 8x16 VGA font).

misc-fixed-medium-r-normal-ko-18-120-100-100-c-180-iso10646-1įixedMisc used the -ko- variant of 18x18 as base, but took some glyphs from the -ja- variant instead. The stock equivalents of these from Fixed are: (Also in MirBSD… in case anyone uses it.)
#Xterm vs uxterm install
If you install xfonts-base from above, the aliases mirhw, mirfw, mirvga (in this order hw=halfwidth, fw=fullwidth) will be predefined.

There’s also an 8x16 VGA variant for e.g. The X long font descriptions for the font I mean (for -fn and -fw for xterm, for example) are: The 9x18/18x18 are not standard aliases, I just use them to describe the font sizes.
#Xterm vs uxterm plus
is the easier way, it contains a replacement xfonts-base package with all the standard fonts (although not in the version in Debian, but in the latest one from XFree86® (which has fixes over X.org) plus fixes _from_ X.org plus fixes of my own), plus FixedMisc. bdf, but it takes much longer to load).įor Debian users. pcf for installation you can also install the. bdf (and then the usual bdftopcf from XFree86®/X.org to convert to. It lives in CVS at (ignore the 9x18/ subdirectory there for now, I never got around to finishing that idea), but needs bdfctool from to compile from. I occasionally publish snapshots at but that’s been a while.
