possible making fvwm to load two fonts alternatively?

[danielhf]

more specificly, I would like to load a certain font for showing ASCII, but another one for showing characters of my mother language.
that’s because the font i choose (say microsoft tahoma) looks pretty good when showing ASCIIs, but too ugly for others (say Asian characters), is it possible to make fvwm loading another font while showing characters other than ASCII?

for some applications, i can use a grammer like “fontA, fontB” in config that make it loading font alternatively. is it legal in FVWM as well? i tried but failed.

style * Font “FontA, FontB” didn’t work

any ideas about this? thanks a lot…

The man pager says that your font description is permitted and functional,

A font name can be given as an extended XLFD. This is a comma separated list of (simple) XLFD font names, for example: -adobe-courier-bold-r-normal–14-,--courier-medium-r-normal–14-*
Each simple font name is tried until a matching font with the locale charset is found and if this fails each simple font name is tried with out constraint on the charset.

But It doesn’t work in my config…
