Configure font

How to attend to everyone's special needs…
X11
Installing is easy:
sudo pacman -S adobe-source-code-pro-fonts # monospace sudo pacman -S ttf-dejavu # and regular
but here is where it gets annoying…:
GTK2
~/.gtkrc-2.0
gtk-font-name = "DejaVu Sans 8"
And what about gtkrc-reload?
GTK3
(firefox, thunderbird, ??)
~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
[Settings] gtk-font-name = DejaVu Sans 8
Qt4
(vlc)
qtconfig-qt4
xterm
~/.Xresources
XTerm*faceName: Source Code Pro XTerm*faceSize: 10
urxvt
~/.Xresources
URxvt.font: xft:Source Code Pro:size=10
termite
~/.config/termite/config
[options] font = Source Code Pro 10
terminator
[profiles] [[default]] background_image = None cursor_color = "#ffffff" font = Inconsolata Bold 10
console
There is only one reasonable font here:
yaourt -S terminus-font-ll2-td1 sudo setfont ter-216n
For different sizes, try 212, 214, 216, 218, …
Make it permanent:
/etc/vconsole.conf
FONT=ter-216n FONT_MAP=8859-2_to_uni
and rebuild:
sudo mkinitcpio -p linux
more?
I'm sure there is plenty more. Please let me know about those that I didn't find yet!
