There seem to be a couple of rendering bugs that can pop up with certain fonts and/or certain anti-aliasing settings those can be annoying, but can generally be worked around with enough fiddling. Rxvt-unicode / urxvt is still a pretty solid choice, if you want a pretty lightweight terminal that has a high level of unicode support. You can specify a different fontstack for regular, bold, and italic. And you can override for specific Unicode blocks, but not for specific individual codepoints. It's not super flexible if the first font doesn't have any glyph for a codepoint, it will try the next one, etc. The only one like this that I know of personally is rxvt-unicode. All arguments to lxterm are passed to xterm without processing the -class, -k8, and -u8 options should. lxterm is a wrapper around the xterm (1) program that invokes xterm, koi8rxterm (1), or uxterm (1) as appropriate, based on the user's locale setting. This is kindof a pain to configure (although the distro's out-of-the-box configuration may be sufficient), but is flexible.Īllows you to specify multiple fonts in the configuration, to be searched in order for glyphs (aka, a fontstack). lxterm - locale-sensitive wrapper for xterm SYNOPSIS. Only allows configuration of a single font, but uses the correct libraries/API or whatever so that glyph substitution configured via fontconfig at the system level is obeyed. CARE CODE: 205.2 LU003' This happened on the first sign in attempt. Uxterm tried unsuccesfully to use locale password#Recover your ID or reset your password to continue. Only ever uses a single font zero glyph substitution. Locked out of att.net email account When I tried to login to my att.net email account, I got the following message: 'Looks like you’ve tried to sign in unsuccessfully too many times. Terminals fall into 3 categories when it comes to multi-font support and glyph substitution.

The current setup is using OS X 10.11.4, running XQuartz 2.7.9 (xorg-server 1.17.4), and (currently) running an Xterm with command: I tried launching xterm > with 'utf8: 1' and 'locale: false' and then invoking luit. It's a large and growing issue, not being able to effectively see email contents, viewing online content rendered with characters everyone else in gui-land is using. Reading and researching how fonts work in X11, which I still don't really understand In my xterm, when I wget that page, and show it with less, it shows this (2)Įvery different -fa and -fs option I can find When I visit this page: on any browser in OS X, most all of the characters show up correctly. I've been working on this over the last few years, and spent another fruitless hour this morning banging against it.
