[comp.windows.open-look] convertfont + x3270 Re: Font aliases with OpenWindows?

I attempted to bring up release 1.2 of x3270 under olwm. Everything
compiles just fine.  The only problem is trying to "convertfont" the
supplied 3270.bdf to an openwindows font.  Using "convertfont
3270.bdf" i get the following output:
3270.bdf->./327014.fb      

I assume that the 14 is probably the font size is 14 ( from the bdf
file i see "SIZE 14 72 72").

Anyway, I do an xset, and then xlsfonts -- and behold -- no 3270 font.

Has anyone else encountered something similar? ( PS... i have no
problems with fonts from other applications ).
