  What else is in you .Xresources file . Also have you tried using xft formated font names . Ie xft:luxi mono:size=10 ?

Hello,



recently (not sure exactly when) my xterms no longer showed the underscore character.

In my .Xresources I had (and have had this setting for years):



XTerm*faceName: Monospace

XTerm*faceSize: 10



I noticed when experimenting and modifying values that for one choice

the bottom part of letters like 'g' was missing.

So changed faceSize to 11 and all is good.



In gnome-terminal with Monospace/10 font underscores showed up fine

(and was ok in gnome font selector).  So it appears to be xterm specific.



Has anyone else experienced this?



cheers
