On macOS, X11 is aware of system fonts and those under /Library/Fonts and ~/Library/Fonts too. This of course helps X11, so you can run xterm with, say, with Menlo fonts. </div><br class=""><div class="">—Ettore</div><div class=""><div class=""><div dir="auto" style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; widows: 2; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: -webkit-auto; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: -webkit-auto; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-position: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-variant-alternates: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: -webkit-auto; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div class=""><font face="Osaka" class=""><span style="font-size: 12px;" class="">Ettore Aldrovandi</span></font></div><div class=""><font face="Osaka" class=""><span style="font-size: 12px;" class="">Department of Mathematics, Florida State University</span></font></div><div class=""><font face="Osaka" class=""><span style="font-size: 12px;" class="">1017 Academic Way * <a href="http://www.math.fsu.edu/~ealdrov" class="">http://www.math.fsu.edu/~ealdrov</a></span></font></div><div class=""><font face="Osaka" class=""><span style="font-size: 12px;" class="">Tallahassee, FL 32306-4510, USA * * aldrovandi at math dot fsu dot edu</span></font></div><div class=""><font face="Osaka" class=""><span style="font-size: 12px;" class=""><br class=""></span></font></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div></body></html>
