Re: xt5250 on xterm with freetype support

Hmmm... This would be a really nice feature to add.

Currently, we send an ascape sequence to the XTerm to change the font.  If
you know what the escape sequence needs to be to use the freetype fonts
instead of the original fonts, I could add that feature to the emulator...

I've searched the internet looking for it, but so far haven't found
anything. :(
