Starting Applications With a Specific Simplified Chinese Font Set

When you start an Asian Solaris tool at the command line, you can also specify its fonts. Below is an example of a command line argument used to start a Simplified Chinese Windows terminal with a specified font set:

system% dtterm -fn "-dt-interface system-medium-r-normal-s \ serif-14-120-75-75-p-60-gb1988.1989-0; \ -dt-interface system-medium-r-normal-s \ serif-14-120-75-75-p-120-gb2312.1980-0:"

Note the two delimiters used in the font set. The ";" delimiter is used to separate the font names except for the last font name, which ends with the ":" delimiter. (In the example above, ";" follows the English font name, and the ":" delimiter follows the Simplified Chinese font name.) Since there are spaces in the long font names, the font list is enclosed in quotation marks.
