chkfontpath − simple interface for adding, removing, and listing directories in the X font server’s path
chkfontpath [--add <dir>] [--remove <path>] [--list] [--help]
chkfontpath provides a simple method of configuring the directories contained in the X font server’s path. As of Red Hat 6.0, all fonts in X are served via this separate font server process, not through the main X server process. This speeds up font rendering, and also allows use of font servers which are not running on the local host.
chkfontpath is mainly used by rpm in its %post and %postun sections to add and remove new directories to the server’s config file at installation and de-installation time of packages containing fonts. --add <dir> allows you to add a directory to the path. --remove <dir> allows you to remove a directory from the path. You may query the directories currently in the path with --list; this is also the default behavior when no options are specified.
When directories are added to the path, some sanity checking is performed to make sure you are not adding a directory without the file fonts.dir contained in it, which the server needs to be able to render fonts properly. When a path is succesfully added or removed, the xfs process is restarted if it is currently running.
chkfontpath returns 0 on success, or 1 on error.
