|Okay, so "one does not" build fonts for X with metafont.  How DOES one

|Along the same lines (what prompted the question to start with) is there
|a font somewhere suitable for big letters in xterm?

You meant to say "build fonts for X" I suppose. Maybe take an existing
font and hack at each character with a bitmap editor? If all you want
to do is an 8x13 font, maybe this is fastest. I made a font for lpr
banners long long ago this way.

Didn't dcm post a X font editor sometime back?
