Re: xt5250 size

Thanks for the *great* hint. I was wondering how to specify default font
sizes. Does anyone have a complete listing of which values correspond to
which named sizes? I see that 10x20 == Huge  Is this something that will
vary by distribution or OS? Maybe it could be documented in the FAQ for
each platform?

That's a font issue.  I had the same problem (I'm still a newbie to X).  I
changed my xt5250 script to include:
-font 10x20
which is almost too big when it switches to 132 char mode, but is great
most of
the time.
