Success!
Thank you! I can now see all the fonts in
emacs/lisp/language/mlm-util.el
You gave good instructions. I copied the fonts from savannah.nongnu.org
Here is what I did. This should go into the documentation somewhere.
Handa-san, please add this in the best place. Thank you.
----------------\
Here is an example of how Robert J. Chassell fetched and installed
the fonts for malayalam, and Indic language.
First, as user `root', execute these commands:
cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/
mkdir malayalam
cd malayalam
wget -c
http://savannah.nongnu.org/download/smc/free-mal-fonts.pkg/1.1/free-mal-fonts.tar.gz
tar tvzf free-mal-fonts.tar.gz # see what you have
tar xvzf free-mal-fonts.tar.gz # untar into a sub-directory
chown -R root.root .
chmod -R ugo+rw .
cd /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/malayalam/free-mal-fonts
Now, you must make sure there is a 'fonts.scale' in the
malayalam/free-mal-fonts/ directory.
Raja R Harinath <address@hidden> writes:
If there is no 'fonts.scale' file in that directory, create it with
the following contents inside the ---8<--- lines.
---8<--- fonts.scale
1
malayalam.ttf -misc-malayalam-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-p-0-iso10646-1
---8<---
[the following is not needed if copying the fonts from savannah.nongnu.org]
If there's already a fonts.scale in that directory, add 1 to the
number on top of that file, and append the "malayalam.ttf -misc-...-1"
line to it.
After creating the `fonts.scale' file, in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/malayalam/free-mal-fonts/
execute these commands in that directory:
mkfontdir
xset fp+ `pwd`
xset fp rehash
Then, add the following to your ~/.emacs file; you can be a non-root user:
(set-fontset-font (query-fontset (frame-parameter nil 'font))
(cons (decode-char 'ucs #x0D00) (decode-char 'ucs #x0D7f))
(cons "misc-malayalam" "iso10646-1"))
Now as a non-root user, you can visit
emacs/lisp/language/mlm-util.el
in GNU Emacs and see all the fonts.
