[comp.windows.x] DECWindows 3.0 fonts and X11R4

sean@dsl.pitt.edu (Sean McLinden) (04/20/91)

This question must have been asked, before, but I've tried the FAQ
suggestions (the FONTS.ALIAS file that comes with DEC Windows) and
I still have the following problem:

The circumstance is VMS 5.4-2 DECWindows as the client with a
vanilla X11R4 Server (*not* DECWindows) on a 4.1 Ultrix DECStation.
I've already combined the FONTS.ALIAS files from DECWindows and
ran "xset fp rehash".

$ spawn/nowait run sys$system:decw$bookreader
%DCL-S-SPAWNED, process SSSMCL_2 spawned
$

Thanks.
