Hello, recently (not sure exactly when) my xterms no longer showed the underscore character. In my .Xresources I had (and have had this setting for years): XTerm*faceName: Monospace XTerm*faceSize: 10 I noticed when experimenting and modifying values that for one choice the bottom part of letters like 'g' was missing. So changed faceSize to 11 and all is good. In gnome-terminal with Monospace/10 font underscores showed up fine (and was ok in gnome font selector). So it appears to be xterm specific. Has anyone else experienced this? cheers -- Tony Maher email: tonymaher@optusnet.com.au
