The documentation says we should be able to also use OTF fonts, but so
far Ive had no luck loading one. Loading more than one font to use

Loading more than one font to use
some fallback fonts also doesnt seem to work, unlike specified in the
documentation (I wanted to use a CJK font, but it doesnt appear to
work).

user-friendly, especially if you might have CJK characters appear in
otherwise regular text.

*the second font and further arent fallback fonts*. They are additional
fonts you can switch to manually through the use of ~^f<n>~ (~<n>~ being
the desireds font index in the 0-indexed font list). But if a font
cannot render a character, it will simply display an empty rectangle
instead of falling back to another font. Thats annoying… Here is my

:END:
Apparently having two fonts, including one with Japanese characters,
does not help with window titles containing Japanese characters.
As far as I know, Unifont is the only font Ive tested that displays
monospaced Japanese characters in StumpWM. I tried DejaVu, IBM Plex,
and a couple of others but only this one works correctly. DejaVu is
here for the Powerline separator. If you know of another monospaced
font that displays Japanese characters, or even better CJK characters,
please tell me! My email address is at the bottom of this webpage.
