Slight correction:
	X-windows *does* have proportional fonts.
	In fact, for X11R3 (the minimum that most people now have),
	Adobe and Bitstream donated several font families to the
	X world including Times, Helvetica, Courier, Charter,
	and New Century Schoolbook, each in several different sizes;
	these are all proportionally spaced.
	In addition to this, several fixed pitch fonts are provided.
