I have never had problems running OpenLook application under the xnews
server and twm.  The window manager doesn't have anything to do with
fonts, that the server's problem.  Now if I read you right I think your
problem is "Running Open Look apps using server other than XNEWS".
Insights:
- Your server doesn't have the the Open Look glyph or cursor fonts.
- Your server doesn't have the other fonts used by XView programs.
- If you're running MIT X11R4 (patchlevel 18), your fonts aren't setup right.
  You need to tell us exactly what messages you see when you try to run
  Open Look application, so we can give you further insights.
