Installation instructions for fontserver
1 - set DefaultFSConfigFile to point to the correct place, if the default
is not what you want.
an example config file is in ./config
2 - modify the file named by DefaultFsConfigFile so the 'catalogue'
parameter points to a set of valid font directories.
At this point the test programs should work. Start the font server
(xfs &) and try some tests. Most of the clients take
a command line switch of where to find the server, and
FSlib understands the environment variable FONTSERVER.
The format is the same as Xlib, (ie, hostname:server_number).
See mit/doc/fontserver:
./doc
various pieces of documentation on the font server and associated
software:
FSlib.doc - short summary of the FSlib functions and their args
test_progs - description of the clients & test programs
design.ms - troff source of fontserver design overview
Tested font formats.
The fontserver has been tested with PCF, Speedo, SNF and BDF formats.
Tested environments:
the fontserver and clients have been built & tested on SPARC running
4.x and a DECstation 3100 running V4.0. it should work ok on any 32
bit UNIX w/ BSD sockets.
