[The rest of these notes come from the original X11R5 implementation
|
|
|
|
in 1991, and have been updated slightly for the xfs 1.1.0 modular release,
|
|
|
|
but are otherwise a bit stale.]

|
|
|
1 - If you don't want to use the default config file location,
|
|
|
|
run configure with the --with-default-config-file=path option to
|
|
|
|
point to the correct place.

|
|
|
An example config file is in ./config

|
|
|
2 - modify the config file so the 'catalogue'
|
2006-11-26 07:43:35 -07:00
|
|
|
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).
