I'm struggling with a new-to-me configuration error on a recent cygwin
installation: X11-compiled ESP-r binaries all report "display
127.0.0.1:0.0 doesn't know font 6x12". I have the following flavours of
6x12 installed in /usr/share/fonts:
 
6x12-ISO8859-1.pcf.gz    
6x12-ISO8859-10.pcf.gz   
6x12-ISO8859-13.pcf.gz   
6x12-ISO8859-14.pcf.gz   
6x12-ISO8859-15.pcf.gz   
6x12-ISO8859-16.pcf.gz   
6x12-ISO8859-2.pcf.gz    
6x12-ISO8859-3.pcf.gz    
6x12-ISO8859-4.pcf.gz    
6x12-ISO8859-5.pcf.gz    
6x12-ISO8859-7.pcf.gz    
6x12-ISO8859-8.pcf.gz    
6x12-ISO8859-9.pcf.gz    
6x12-KOI8-R.pcf.gz       
6x12.pcf.gz  
 
I've tried the font-configuration advice contained in the readme file
(namely "export EFONT_0=6x12"), without success. Can anybody shed some
light on my problem?
 
Thanks!
