Hi all,
I apologize in advance if this is FAQ, but I Googled and searched the
XQuartz docs without an answer.
I use a custom mono-spaced bitmap programming font called "proggy"
(http://proggyfonts.com/). Not only is the font available for X, there
are also TrueType and Mac versions, which provides consistent use,
regardless of environment.
To use the font, I've added it to /opt/X11/lib/X11/fonts/misc/ and update
the fonts.alias file, which works perfectly. The problem is, any time I
update to a new XQuartz release, this directory gets updated and I need
to add it back to the fonts.alias file and run mkfontdir.
Is there an easy (or preferred) way to protect this font configuration
across XQuartz updates?
TIA,
Doug
