I have two files, standard.bdf and xconq.bdf,  these are supposed
to be X11 font files encoded.  How do I decode them?  The README
file with the archives says to smply do 'make X11fonts', but I get
the following when I try this:

(cd lib;  fc xconq.bdf;  fc standard.bdf)
sh: fc: not found
*** Error code 1

Stop.

What format are these files in and how do I decode them?

All help appreciated, thanks.
