Font setting #5

Closed vaskark closed 2 years ago

vaskark commented 2 years ago

Hi. This is a really neat wm, so thanks. I have a question about setting a new font for the window title bar. I've tried as many variations as I could think of but none seem to work. Do ttf and bdf (or otb) font formats work? If so, what is the proper syntax?

Thanks.

Hi,
Until now, shod only supported the old X11 fonts.
But because of this issue, I have just implemented support for Xft fonts in a proper branch.
I will merge xft into master after testing the changes and be confident they are OK.

NOTE: Shod does still not support multiple/fallback fonts. Only a single font is supported for now.

Thanks so much! I really didn't expect you to do that. I just figured I was doing something wrong.

Looking forward to the updates and further development. Once again, many thanks..
