Small "?" next to font in xlib font used as a graphic


ALL,

I am seeing a weird error in a font display. I see a small question mark next to a font that I am using as a simple graphic.

Does this mean that some function call in xlib is being passed an invalid paramter?

char to unsigned short

This problem was a typical programming error where someone put a signed char where an unsigned char should have been.

So after changing the variable to unsigned char everything worked fine.
