Fonts
-----
The fonts in the default theme (winter) and core themes (BlueSteel,
BrushedMetal-Tigert, Ganymede, and ShinyMetal) are configured (indirectly)
in fonts.cfg. Directory search order is (typically):
~/.e16, <theme-dir>, and /usr/share/e16/config/fonts.cfg).
Other themes are likely to have font references more or less scattered around
in TextClass definitions in the theme configuration files.
There are three different ways to specify a font:
1) "<font name>/<size>", e.g. "Vera/8".
In this case e16 must be able to find "Vera.ttf" in its TrueType font path.
The e16 default TrueType font path is <theme dir>/ttfont, additional paths
may be given via the theme.ttfont_path configuration setting.
2) XLFD font sets, e.g. "-*-lucida-medium-r-normal-*-12-120-*-*-*-*-*-*,-*-gulim*-medium-r-normal-*-12-120-*-*-*-*-ksc5601.1987-*".
xfontsel, xlsfonts, and xfd can be used to select and show these fonts.
3) Fontconfig font names, e.g. "Luxi Sans-10:bold".
fc-list and xfd can be used to select and show these fonts.
NB! This possibility (Xft support) was added after the 0.16.8.4 release.
Using e16 with GNOME
--------------------
(Using Fedora Core 4, may be pertinent to other distributions as well).
