I have a need to add additional fonts to X11. On a linux system I
would edit the XF86Config file and add something like, FontPath
"/usr/XllR6/lib/X11/fonts/myfonts" How do I accomplish this under Xll
on X? Any help would be great!
For FreeType programs: Editing FreeType's configuration file ought to
do it. It should be located at "/etc/X11/XftConfig".
For non-FreeType programs: Since XFree86 on OS X ignores XF86Config
files, you need to make the change using the "xset" program. Running
"xset +fp /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/myfonts" ought to do it. See the
xset man page for more details...
