UXTERM TRIED TO USE LOCALE WINDOWS
This box is located in the upper left area of the window.Īlthough both windows may be displayed at the same time, one of them is considered the “active” window for receiving keyboard input and terminal output. To maintain the correct aspect ratio (height/width), Tektronix graphics will be restricted to the largest box with a 4014's aspect ratio that will fit in the window. The VT xxx and Tektronix 4014 terminals each have their own window so that you can edit text in one and look at graphics in the other at the same time. If the underlying operating system supports terminal resizing capabilities (for example, the SIGWINCH signal in systems derived from 4.3BSD), xterm will use the facilities to notify programs running in the window whenever it is resized. It also provides Tektronix 4014 emulation for programs that cannot use the window system directly.
It provides DEC VT102/VT220 and selected features from higher-level terminals such as VT320/VT420/VT520 (VT xxx). The xterm program is a terminal emulator for the X Window System. Open the terminal using a Serif font and a font size equal to 20: xterm -fa 'Serif' -fs 20.Open the terminal with 100 characters per line and 35 lines, in screen position x=200px, y=20px: xterm -geometry 100x 35+ 200+ 20.Open the terminal with a dark blue background and yellow foreground (font color): xterm -bg darkblue -fg yellow.Open the terminal in fullscreen mode: xterm -fullscreen.Open the terminal with a title of Example: xterm -T Example.I don't care much for "modern" terminals like Konsole, Gnome Terminal, etc., but they do tend to have pretty font rendering and decent Unicode support (and tend to fall into category #2 above. 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. 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). 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. Only ever uses a single font zero glyph substitution. Terminals fall into 3 categories when it comes to multi-font support and glyph substitution. Xterm -class UXTerm -title uxterm -u8 -fa Mono -fs 11 -bg black -fg white 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: 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.
