Hi.
I'm using a Parallax-equipped VAX, and in an effort to make the screen more
readable, I've started using Courier Bold 18 as a font. Unfortunately,
applications (especially Emacs, but also Xterm) don't erase the text properly
when text is moved. This means that I get "garbage" pixels on screen, and
I have to send a ^L to make it legible again.
I've tried 9x15, the largest fixed font available, and it is too small to be
clearly legible, so the use of this font is mandated. Any help you can
give would be apreciated.
Thanks.
