I'm probably missing something obvious, but .....

If a user does not specify a font either through a resource
or on a command line, what is the default font used to display
text?  (seems to be "fixed")

What I'm really getting at is what is the best way for an Xt application
writer to supply a default font without supplying an application 
defaults file?


thanks,
