To convert one of the resulting names into a font at a specific size, replace one of the first two zeros with a nonzero value. The field containing the first zero is for the pixel size; replace it with a specific height in pixels to name a font at that size. Alternatively, the field containing the second zero is for the point size; replace it with a specific size in decipoints (there are 722.7 decipoints to the inch) to name a font at that size. The last zero is an average width field, measured in tenths of pixels; some servers will anamorphically scale if this value is specified.
Font Server NamesOne of the following forms can be used to name a font server that accepts TCP connections:
tcp/hostname:port
tcp/hostname:port/cataloguelist
The hostname specifies the name (or decimal numeric address) of the machine on which the font server is running. The port is the decimal TCP port on which the font server is listening for connections. The cataloguelist specifies a list of catalogue names, with "+" as a separator. For example:
tcp/expo.lcs.mit.edu:7000
tcp/18.30.0.212:7001/all.
Color NamesMost applications provide ways of tailoring (usually through resources or
X supports the use of abstract color names, for example, "red", "blue". A value for this abstract name is obtained by searching one or more
A numerical color specification consists of a color space name and a set of values in the following syntax:
color_space_name:value/.../value
