You should use `'=B4 instead. And, since all =20 these simsun fonts are proportional, you can change p to *, and since =20= since there is only one in gb2312.1980 you can change the final * to 0. Another way to solve the problem is to invoke xfontsel and make it =20 choose a particularly scaled font. The press select, and you can =20 paste that font name into xterm or a file. -- Greetings Pete Chicago, n.: Where the dead still vote ... early and often!
