Right!  And, it will be a much better emulation if VMS fonts can be made
available to the DECterm too.

Now that you've brought this up, I copy my SYS$COMMON:[SYSFONT.DECW] font
directories to my linux and Mac, run 'mkfontdir' and then I can 'xset fp+'
these fonts to the fontpath.  This solves some issue when dealing with the
VMS font server serving these fonts. 

Does anyone know how to do this same thing under WEENDOZE X11?
