    5: #  Introduction
    6: 
    7: The purpose of this document is to guide you on how to make xterm use a [truetype](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TrueType) font. 
    8: 
    9: #  Choose font
   10: 
   11: First pick a font you like, from this list: 
   12:     
   13:     $ fc-list | col | sort | less
   14:     
   15: 
   16: Note: A nice font set is [Liberation](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberation_fonts). It can be found in `fonts/liberation-ttf`. 
   17: 
   18: #  Run xterm
   19: 
   20: Then type: 
   21:     
   22:     xterm -fa 'Liberation Mono' -fs 10
   23:     
   24: 
   25: #  ~/.Xdefaults file
   26: 
   27: If you want xterm to use these font settings by default, you may add the following lines in your `~/.Xdefaults` file: 
   28:     
   29:     XTerm*faceName: Liberation Mono
   30:     XTerm*faceSize: 10
   31:
