### How can I use the new graphical font under the Linux text console? Simply start your program with the parameter `--newfont`. ### How can I use the new graphical font under X11? The use of the new graphical font under X11 is only possible with the terminal emulators [xterm](http://invisible-island.net/xterm/xterm.html) or [urxvt](http://software.schmorp.de/pkg/rxvt-unicode.html), because only these terminal emulators can change the font by using an escape sequence. For an xterm, the "[Allow Font Ops](../doc/xterm.txt)" option must be set. #### Install the gzip compressed X11 pcf bitmap font 8x16graph.pcf.gz on your xserver: 1. Create as user root the font directory
`mkdir /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/finalcut/` 2. Copy the files 8x16graph.pcf.gz, fonts.dir and fonts.alias into the just created directory
`cp 8x16graph.pcf.gz fonts.dir fonts.alias /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/finalcut/` 3. Add the new dir to X font path
`xset fp+ /usr/share/fonts/X11/misc/finalcut/`
*(You can insert this command into the ~/.xinitrc to make the font path permanently usable)* 4. Check if the font is available to the xserver
`xlsfonts | grep 8x16graph` 5. Start your program with the parameter `--newfont`
`ui --newfont`
