You can start using the fonts by the following instructions. It is
required for an application which uses XLFD.
Eiter type the following in an X terminal:
xset fp+ /usr/local/share/fonts/alias-fonts
xset fp rehash
Or, more permanently, add the following line to the "Files" section
of your X.Org configuration file (typically /etc/X11/xorg.conf):
FontPath "/usr/local/share/fonts/alias-fonts/"
then restart X. After that, run the following command to check your
Font Path setting:
xset q
whether the following directories are listed:
/usr/local/share/fonts/alias-fonts/ (This port)
Make fonts repecting XDG
Xorg is now looking in ${LOCALBASE}/share/fonts by default
Xorg now accepts symlinks in etc/X11/fontpath.d (as decribed in Xserver(1))
Large cleanup on lots of font ports
All fonts are now properly dynamically generating fonts.dir and fonts.scale
instead of sometime overwriting existing ones)
All fonts are generating fontconfig's cache
Improve consistency in fonts ports
Remove indefinite articles and trailing periods from COMMENT, plus minor
COMMENT typos and surrounding whitespace fixes. A few Makefiles where not
included as they contain Latin-1 characters that break the Phabricator
workflow. Categories J-L.

- Rename japanese/jisx0213-fonts with japanese/font-jisx0213.
- Trim old-style header.
- Fix MASTER_SITES.
- Mark as MAKE_JOBS_SAFE=yes
- Remove no-op pkg-req.
japanese/font-std, chinese/font-std, and dependency fixups due
to it have been added. These are to install standard fonts used in the
Ports Collection. Currently they contain:
std.ja_JP/Mincho
std.ja_JP/Gothic
std.ja_JP/Ryumin-Light
std.ja_JP/GothicBBB-Medium
std.zh_CN/STHeiti-Regular
std.zh_CN/STSong-Light
std.zh_CN/MSung-Light
std.zh_CN/MHei-Medium
under ${PREFIX}/share/fonts/. They are just symlinks to
corresponding font files. The symlink names are based on popular
PostScript font names.
Applications should refer the font files via XLFD or fontconfig
first. If they need a direct reference to the font file, please use
files in std.*/*. This is because direct reference to a specific
font name in an application configuration file makes the maintenance
difficult when the font file name is changed, for example.

- Make xorg the default X_WINDOW_SYSTEM on -current.
- Add several new X_*_PORT variables which point to various pieces of X11 based
on the setting of X_WINDOW_SYSTEM, and make ports use them.
- Add information to CHANGES about how to handle the transition.

Add new port alias-fonts, which obsoletes netscape-fonts.
As an improvement, it looks like same fonts irrespective of size.
It was renamed because it could be utilized with several Japanese apps, not only
with Netscape.
