Bug#920336: [xterm] Xterm doesn't support double-sized characters (DECDHL) when using Xft (client-side) fonts



Package: xterm
Version: 327-2
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

Whenever I configure xterm to use core X11 fonts:

> *.vt100.renderFont:             False
> *.vt100.locale:                 False
> *.vt100.font:                   -monotype-courier
> new-medium-r-normal--*-120-*-*-m-*-koi8-r

it renders double-sized characters (DECDHL) properly.

But when I configure it to use client-side fonts:

> *.vt100.renderFont:             True
> *.vt100.faceName:               Courier New:antialias=false
> *.vt100.faceSize:               12
> *.vt100.utf8:                   1
> *.vt100.utf8Fonts:              True
> *.vt100.utf8Title:              True

it fails to render double-sized characters, which can be confirmed via
the vttest utility.
