Font size on ubuntu?

AltF4 · October 18, 2010, 09:27

is there a way to change the font size on terms on ubuntu?

term 1 and 2 have a perfectly reasonable default font size but term 3 has a tiny font size for some unknown reason.

The file ~/.angband/Angband/x11-settings.prf is the key. Mine looks like this:

Code:

# Angband X11 settings

# Term 0
COLS_0=100
ROWS_0=25
IBOX_0=1
IBOY_0=1
FONT_0=10x20
TILE_WIDTH_0=10
TILE_HEIGHT_0=20

Term 1 font size will be controlled by FONT_1, etc - so you just need to set FONT_3 to a reasonable size.

x11-settings.prf did not already exist I tried adding it but had no affect.

I should have checked - are you using the x11 front end?

Assuming '-mx11' has me using the x11 front end yes.

Did you build it yourself or install the distro package? The x11-settings.prf should be in the package, and should do the job.
