### 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`
