NAME xfs - X font server SYNOPSIS xfs [ -config configuration_file ] [ -ls listen-socket ] [ -port tcp_port ] AVAILABILITY SUNWxwfs DESCRIPTION Xfs is the X Window System font server. It supplies fonts to X Window System display servers. STARTING THE SERVER The server is usually run by a system administrator, and started via boot files like /etc/rc.local. Users may also wish to start private font servers for specific sets of fonts. Automatic starting can be enabled or disabled through the fsadmin(1) command. OPTIONS -config configuration_file Specifies the configuration file the font server will use. The default configuration file is /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fontserver.cfg -ls listen-socket Specifies a file descriptor which is already set up to be used as the listen socket. This option is only intended to be used by the font server itself when automatically spawning another copy of itself to handle additional connections. -port tcp_port Specifies the TCP port number on which the server will listen for connections. SIGNALS SIGTERM This causes the font server to exit cleanly. SIGUSR1 This signal is used to cause the server to re-read its configuration file. SIGUSR2 This signal is used to cause the server to flush any cached data it may have. SIGHUP This signal is used to cause the server to reset, closing all active connections and re-reading the configuration file. CONFIGURATION The configuration language is a list of keyword and value pairs. Each keyword is followed by an '=' and then the desired value. Recognized keywords include: catalogue (list of string) Ordered list of font path element names. Use of the keyword "catalogue" is very misleading at present, the current implementation only supports a single catalogue ("all"), containing all of the specified fonts. alternate-servers (list of string) List of alternate servers for this font server. client-limit (cardinal) Number of clients this font server will support before refusing service. This is useful for tuning the load on each individual font server. clone-self (boolean) Whether this font server should attempt to clone itself when it reachs the client-limit. default-point-size (cardinal) The default pointsize (in decipoints) for fonts that don't specify. The default is 120. default-resolutions (list of resolutions) Resolutions the server supports by default. This information may be used as a hint for pre-rendering, and substituted for scaled fonts which do not specify a resolution. A resolution is a comma-separated pair of x and y resolutions in pixels per inch. Multiple reso- lutions are separated by commas. error-file (string) Filename of the error file. All warnings and errors will be logged here. port (cardinal) TCP port on which the server will listen for connec- tions. use-syslog (boolean) Whether syslog(3) (on supported systems) is to be used for errors. deferglyphs (string) Set the mode for delayed fetching and caching of glyphs. Value is "none", meaning deferred glyphs is disabled, "all", meaning it is enabled for all fonts, and "16", meaning it is enabled only for 16-bits fonts. EXAMPLE # # sample font server configuration file # # allow a max of 128 clients to connect to this font server client-limit = 128 # when a font server reaches its limit, start up a new one clone-self = on # alternate font servers for clients to use alternate-servers = hansen:7101,hansen:7102 # where to look for fonts catalogue = /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/F3bitmaps, /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1, /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo, /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/misc, /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi, /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi # in 12 points, decipoints default-point-size = 120 # 100 x 100 and 75 x 75 default-resolutions = 100,100,75,75 use-syslog = off FONT SERVER NAMES One of the following forms can be used to name a font server that accepts TCP connections: tcp/hostname:port tcp/hostname:port/cataloguelist The hostname specifies the name (or decimal numeric address) of the machine on which the font server is running. The port is the decimal TCP port on which the font server is listening for connections. The cataloguelist specifies a list of catalogue names, with '+' as a separator. Examples: tcp/fs.x.org:7100, tcp/18.30.0.212:7101/all. One of the following forms can be used to name a font server that accepts DECnet connections: decnet/nodename::font$objname decnet/nodename::font$objname/cataloguelist The nodename specifies the name (or decimal numeric address) of the machine on which the font server is running. The objname is a normal, case-insensitive DECnet object name. The cataloguelist specifies a list of catalogue names, with '+' as a separator. Examples: DECnet/SRVNOD::FONT$DEFAULT, decnet/44.70::font$special/symbols.
