I think that the functions

are missing in the forms.h header file.
Thank you, I indeed forgot to add them! Just uploaded a corrected
version of xforms-1.3.12.tar.gz (and, of course, to the git repo-
sitory).
The function int fl_set_xft_font_name(int index, const char * name,
int slant, int weight);
works as expected. This will allow me to use the condensed font, and
check whether the font is available on the system.
Fine;-) But the question remains if using the condensed fonts per
default would be better if they deviate less from the old fonts? BTW,
how do you want to use that function to check if a font is available?
I haven't yet found a way to do that at all since the Xft function
called for loading a font always suc- ceeds, even if you pass it some
font name that definitely does not exist - it always gives you a font.
Nice for me since I don't have to care about finding a replacement
font myself, but it would also be nice to have some indication what
actually got loaded (I haven't found out yet if and how one might use
the 'pattern' member of the XftFont structure, the real font name may
be stored in there somewhere...). Best regards, Jens
