fredbloggs73 Sorry for a late reply.
~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf
file may or may not exist. FIrst, check whether it exists or not. Run in terminal:
ls -lh ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf
If the file doesn't exist, the command won't return anything (no output). Otherwise, it will display the full path to the file.
If the file doesn't exist, don't create it. It means that it doesn't needed by any installed software. Forget about the first tweak.
Otherwise, if the file exista, you may follow the advice by @davidjharder above and use nano
to edit ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf
in terminal.
micro
ia another terminal based text editor, powerfull and comfortable to use. It is very... human-friendly. micro
may be used everywhere in place of nano
. To install micro
:
sudo eopkg install micro
To edit the file in terminal:
micro ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf
Finally, why use terminal editors to modify a text file? Use kate
, the excellent Kde text editor.
Both micro
and kate
support traditional Ctrl+C
and Ctrl+V` shortcuts to copy-paste a piece of text.
Independently from all said above, fonts cache may be rebuilt at any time by running one command in terminal:
fc-cache -frv
The command doesn't hurt anything, only improves overall fonts rendering. It's a "must run", when new font(s) were added to the system.
