Appendix D 89
Configuring PC-Xware
SoftBench 6.X supports version 4.08.00 of PC-Xware. Other versions
have not been tested.
PC-Xware can retrieve its fonts from a font server or from
locally-installed font files. PC-Xware cannot access fonts on an HP-UX
system.
PC-Xware uses a Font Path to determine where to find the fonts
requested by X applications. The default Font Path for PC-Xware is
C:\Program Files\Solstice\Pcx
The instructions that follow are for placing the fonts in this default
location. If you choose a different location, you can modify the Font Path
by choosing “Configure: X Server -> Fonts”.
See the PC-Xware documentation for details on accessing a font server or
for changing the X font path.
Configuring PC-Xware to Use a Font Server
To access fonts from a font server, choose “Configure: X Server -> Fonts”.
Select the [Add Font Server] button, and add the font server line to the
front of the Font Path. The font server line uses this format:
tcp/hostname:port
Installing PC-Xware Fonts Locally
PC-Xware uses the same *.pcf fonts as those used on UNIX. However,
PC-Xware cannot access the fonts across the network. If you prefer not to
access the fonts from a font server, you can install the fonts locally onto
your PC.
To use locally-installed fonts, copy the file
/opt/softbench/fonts/pcfonts/pcxware.zip
to your PC. Unpack it at C:\
This assumes that you have PC-Xware installed at
C:\Program Files\Solstice\Pcx
