Fonts - HD install

[Stephen]

In my neverending quest for perfect fonts I ran across this tip on Debian User. Create a file ~/.Xresources and put this line in it:

Xft.autohint: 1

Then logout and back in and you should now be enjoying better looking fonts.

Interesting, but I'm afraid that it gives me a headache.

Thanks for the hint!

Actually I had to put "Xft.autohint: 1" in ~/.Xdefaults
If I put it in ~/.Xresources, nothing changed.
