I don't think it is likely to be a combination. Either a wrong assumption on CLX side (or StumpWM) or a configuration issue in the server

the font that gets returned causes that garbage. If I just look up font "fixed" and use that one instead, everything works.

what was the font that was returned by screen font? Do we need to fix something on StumpWM's side?

Btw I remember you had an idea to improve the event loop, do you remember what was it?

I seem to recall making some changes to it already, but I forgot how much I actually did

I thought it was related to epoll, but that would probably mean including iolib as a dependency

Yes. It implemented the ability to send a notification ona side channel (to trigger event processing without Xlib)

I have been playing around with a mainframe emulator, and for that I use an application called x3270 which is an IBM mainframe terminal emulator. It installs a custom font, which is (drumroll) EBCDIC!

When creating the screen object, it tries to open a font called "9x15". If that font doesn't exist, it gets _all_ fonts and uses the first one. In my case, that happens to be "3270" (presumably since it starts with a digit)

The fallback font should be "fixed", since that is the one font that is guaranteed to exist.

That was so interesting that I posted it on Masotodn: https://functional.cafe/@loke/102625562249878048

getting a weird crash/error after updating stumpwm from f6966cabdf7cdc3cdecf88dfaaf8a90845264c5d to 0a104b41bbee5163f6c4deedcf06801b4ce09ad1 http://ix.io/1RUs . haven't tried the latest commit but seems to happen when i run (set-frame-font "FONT") in emacs, using a truetype font. also seems to be caused by something in my stumpwm.d/init.lisp but haven't narrowed it down yet... anyone else notice a similar
