Adding Fonts

If you want to add a font to tinyx here are the steps:

1. Get the font in .bdf format.
2. Use mkfontscale(1) to convert them into a format that X can read.
3. Optionally compress resulting font with gzip.
4. Give the font an alias that other X programs can understand.[1]
5. For example, tinyx looks for 2 fonts at startup, aliased "fixed" & "cursor.
6. Run 'exec mkfontscale -b -s -l' in the font directory to generate fonts.dir

[1] - The font alias is only required if the font name patches the alias perfectly.
