Installation instructions for fontserver
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1 - set DefaultFSConfigFile to point to the correct place, if the default
|
||
|
|
is not what you want.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
an example config file is in ./config
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2 - modify the file named by DefaultFsConfigFile so the 'catalogue'
|
||
|
|
parameter points to a set of valid font directories.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At this point the test programs should work. Start the font server
|
||
|
|
(xfs &) and try some tests. Most of the clients take
|
||
|
|
a command line switch of where to find the server, and
|
||
|
|
FSlib understands the environment variable FONTSERVER.
|
||
|
|
The format is the same as Xlib, (ie, hostname:server_number).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
