FS#1618 - [xenocara-twm] refused to start (+ system.twmrc rebranding)
When I said the previous issue, twm wouldn’t start when showing an error message below if the system doesn’t have variable or helvetica as the default font.
With the system.twmrc file:
twm: unable to open fontset "-adobe-helvetica-bold-r-normal--*-120-*-*-*-*-*-*"
With the blanked .twmrc file:
twm: unable to open fontset "-*-helvetica-bold-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1"
I made a patch to change the default font to fixed entirely.
I also made a system.twmrc file as the rebranding to replace the original one to make twm look better. The original one was dull and messy. For example, the icons for modern applications in the minimized state had become garbled in monochrome. Here are two screencaps comparing how they look with the default font change.
