I discovered that the fonts need to be called with xft first, then it works from .Xresources or the command line.

urxvt -fn ‚xft:ProggyCleanTTSZ:style=Regular‘

There is a small howto explaining how to set up TTF fonts in X applications. See

http://wiki.netbsd.se/How_to_use_TTF_fonts_in_xterm

Does this help?

Thanks for the article!

Terminus is fine, but for me it consumes too much space vertically. Proggy Tiny saves some pixels and therefore provides you with more lines on the same space.

@foo: Let me package it first, but you are right of course, that at the end of the day the package should go to Debian.

@Evil: Uh well, again a questions of taste. Actually I think one should use what suites best. Though using a non free font is a pity of course.

I’ve been using Courier New for years now. I know it’s not free, but I’ve never found a better monospace font.
