Hi,
I was trying to make xterm use some particular font, namely Terminus. I
managed to do so with "font" X resource:
xterm*font: -*-terminus-medium-r-*--20-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-*
But I wonder if I could achieve the same result with "faceName"
resource. I tried it this way (according to tutorial at
http://keithp.com/~keithp/render/Xft.tutorial):
xterm*faceName: Terminus:encoding=iso10646-1
I don't think the 'encoding' property was ever supported by fontconfig.
Even on my system, it's commented as "old" in
/usr/include/X11/Xft/XftCompat.h and doesn't have a fontconfig
equivalent in that file.
If you need fontconfig to choose a font that supports a certain glyph,
best use the 'lang' property which fontconfig uses to indicate glyph
coverage.
I. e. use some 'lang' value that doesn't appear in the ISO-8859-1
version of the font.
fc-match Terminus:lang=ru
With newer fontconfig, you should also be able to match on 'file'.
