[RP] Fonts

[Philip Hudson]

This might be an ignorant question, but... is it possible to use OTF  
fonts under ratpoison, and if so, what do I need to do?

Context: I like to use Inconsolata-dz in both terminal emulators and  
emacs. It shows up fine in both under Gnome -- I used the Gnome  
desktop GUI for installation, and a copy of the .otf file ended up in  
~/.fonts -- but doesn't appear to show up in ratpoison, or else the  
metrics or something have changed, making the glyphs wider. I've lost  
12 characters' width in my full-screen emacs frame.

This is all on up-to-date Linux Mint running on a 4GB VirtualBox VM  
hosted on an 8GB Windows 7 box.

I hope that's enough detail, and I'm asking the right question... I'm  
pretty sure this is the right place to ask it, anyway.
