I upgraded my TeX system under MacOS X and now MF display works. But I get
a tremendeously big window, much bigger than my screen, and the picture
I'm expecting to see is not in the visible part. I have tried primitives like:
openwindow 1 from (-500,-500) to (500,500) at (-200,-200) ;
display currentpicture inwindow 1;
I can change those figures arbitrarily, they don't seem to do anything.
Does anyone know how I can get control over the dimensions and internal
coordinates of that window? I didn't found any relevant command-line
option, and the texmf.cnf file doesn't handle that either.
It would be nice if one could specify the window geometry by usual X
Window syntax.
I'm using:
>Metafont (Web2C 7.5.2) 2.71828
>kpathsea version 3.5.2
Thanks in advance
