1.3.13 XToolkit Options and Changing Display Fonts
The GUI commands support the following subset of the HP-UX XToolkit command
line options:
• -bgor -background
• -fgor -foreground
• -display
• -name
• -xrm
Note that the SD-UX commands do not support the XToolkit -fn or the -font option
used to change display fonts.
SD-UX commands do, however, recognize most Motif™ standard resources when
running in the X11/Motif environment, plus the following additional resources:
*systemFont
Specifies the variable-width font used in the GUI menu bars and
other areas where a variable width font is applicable. The default
size is 8x13.
*userFont
Specifies the fixed-width font used in all other GUI displays. This
font should be the same basic size as the *systemFont only in the
fixed width style. The default size is also 8x13.
Here is an example of how to change the size of your fixed width font from 8x13 to
6x13:
swinstall -xrm ’Swinstall*userFont: user6x13’
Here is how to change the variable width font style to 12 point HP Roman 8:
swinstall -xrm ’Swinstall*systemFont: \
-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal12-120-75-75-m-70-hp-roman8’
You can also modify the defaults file (in /usr/lib/X11/app-defaults) for each
command with a Graphical User Interface so that a resource will be set each time you
invoke a specific command. Here is an example of an app-defaults file for swremove:
swremove app-defaults
Swremove*foreground: red
Swremove*background: white
Swremove*userFont: hp8.8x16b
Swremove*systemFont: -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal12-120-75-75-m-70-hp-roman8
1.4 Working from the Command Line
You can invoke all SD-UX commands non-interactively via the command line. This
section provides reference information about command-line features available across
most of the commands.
