Telling it "where" probably isn't enough, since the font formats aren't likely to be the same. As I understand it, you have 3 choices: 1) Get the user to use a sun machine running OpenWindows. 2) Replace the OpenLook interface version of Wingz with the Motif version (which I _think_ exists; haven't seen it). 3) Convert the font to the needed format. This should be possible, but you might need help from appropriate gurus. OpenWindows has a utility called (I think) "convertfont" which should be able to give you a transportable (bdf) version of the font; then there should be a version of bdftosnf appropriate for the Qume, which will give you the snf file you need. Then you have to find out where the Qume needs to have it installed :-( Good luck, -- Harry Bochner bochner@das.harvard.edu
