Hello,

I am new to this mailing list. Sorry if my mail does not conform
strickly to your standards.

The default command to launch an rxvt terminal is the following:

C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -display :0 -fn "Lucida Console-14" -tn
rxvt-cygwin-native -e /bin/bash --login

I would like to use Monospace font instead of Lucida Console. I tried:

C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe -display :0 -fn "Monospace-14" -tn
rxvt-cygwin-native -e /bin/bash --login

It results in the use of a double-spaced font which is not Monospace.
Replacing "Monospace" with any string gives the same result.

NB: the Monospace font is the one which is used by default when
launching gvim (with XWin activated).

Thank you for your help.

Best regards,

Jean JOHNER
