      1 Change font in config.h
      2 =======================
      3 Towards the beginning of **config.h**, you will find a line defining the
      4 variable
      5 
      6 	static const char font[] = "..."
      7 
      8 By using **xfontsel**, you can produce a font line for the font you would like
      9 to be used by **dwm** when displaying text in the menubar.
     10 
     11 For example, to change the font to 'fixed', you can change the value of font
     12 to:
     13 
     14 	static const char font[] = "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-100-100-100-c-60-iso8859-1";
     15 
     16 The following patch also produces the same result:
