Slackware/Fluxbox and True Type Fonts


Using Fluxbox as my WM with Slackware.

I don't care for the fonts and I want to add a true type font, like Arial to be used. I threw the file under /home/.fonts and now my browser is using Arial, but how can I get Fluxbox to use Arial font? Is this possible?

I'm not an expert on this but,
you chose the style, say Twice, for instance. So then you go to
/usr/X11R6/share/fluxbox/styles/Twice.
In there are several references to fonts, eg
menu.frame.font: lucidasans-bold-10
so change it....
the font is sometimes only specified once at the end, eg
*Font: lucidasans-10
You will have to experiment!
