Re: bigger window pls


Nils,

Stick to monospaced fonts. I like "Lucida Console" in both RXVT and in the console window.

Nils,
The man page answers the font question. "Rxvt -help" will do in a pinch (note: "rxvt --help" gives different information, not option help).
Did that but I can't see where to look for a list of installed fonts. I just came across /usr/doc/Cygwin/rxvt*.README and it has some font suggestions in there, but they don't work. Using Lucinda gives me the right font and height, but the width is enormous: the character width is OK but the space between them is about 5 times what it should be. Any ideas on this?

The impression I get is that the font doesn't exist; giving -fn "courier-16" works fine.


Why have a two-button mouse?
That's what the laptop has with it's touchpad...

Nils.
