The IBM RT (AIX 2.2.1) X package is missing some of the standard fonts and I would like to understand how bdf font files are created and managed. If there are any archive sites for font files, I can only access via usenet mail. P.S. How does one go about getting the MIT X tape? I have been told that the fonts I seek are on the tape. I copy of the tape I have seen does not have fonts labeled such as vr-20 and so-forth. Is this an X10 ism? Thanks for your time. -- Mark Whetzel My comments are my own, not my company's.
