window, the default

.SH BUGS
On systems with high-DPI screens,
.I 9term
and
.I acme
do not have one current font.
They have a pair of current fonts, one font used when the window
on a low-DPI screen and one used when the window is on a
high-DPI screen.
.I Mc
always uses the low-DPI font for columnation decisions.
