Font Selection - HP Compaq t5725 User Manual

Resources & Command Line Options

Font Selection

The fonts that are used for displaying text in the TeemTalk window are specified by
the following resources and command line options.
Each font selection resource and command line option specifies up to ten fonts. This is
to support the window sizing function described in the Getting Started chapter. If a
font list containing less than ten fonts is specified, then the last font name in the list is
used for the additionally required fonts. TeemTalk uses the 8th entry in the font list
(800x500 emulation window) for standard geometry settings by default.
If the default font is not available in the server font library, TeemTalk will search for
other fonts that are available and suitable to use. If none of these are found, the server
default font will be used.
The font list must be enclosed within double quotes (except when only one font is
specified) and in ascending height order. Each font name must be separated from the
next by a comma.
The number in the font name indicates the height and width of the font in pixels. The
first digit of a three digit number or the first two digits of a four digit number indicate
the height, while the remaining two digits indicate the width. For example, tis805 will
display a font that is eight pixels high and five pixels wide, while tis1608 will display
a font sixteen pixels high and eight pixels wide. nil2 is a standard system font two
pixels high and two pixels wide.
