Hello,
I'm new to cygwin/xfree and I'm trying to change my xterm font.   What
I did was, typed 'xlsfonts' at
the command prompt.  Then I selected a font name and added it to my
.Xdefaults, for example
'XTerm*font: -*-courier-bold-r-normal-*-*-180-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1'.
This produced the following message:
xterm:  unable to open font "*****", trying "fixed".... I repeat this
procedure about 10 times and
got the same message each time.   Is this fixable?  If so, what would
you suggest?

thx.,
matias
