Hey again http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/smile.gif
I'm trying to use some of my better looking fonts with a GNOME-TERMINAL, which I'm not having much sucess with. It seems like when I apply a true type font (verdana, arial, trebuchet) the font's go nutty and space them selves out at a rather insane distance from each other... forcing me back to the ugly "fixed" font...
I really wanna make my terminal look good, but this is getting annoying. Is there any way that I can make my term window use the truetype fonts without making it hard to read words that smash into eachother, or that space themselves out?

Q: How many existentialists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: Two. One to screw it in and one to observe how the lightbulb itself symbolizes a single incandescent beacon of subjective reality in a netherworld of endless absurdity reaching out toward a maudlin cosmos of nothingness.
