[Mlterm-dev-en] A basic questions : fonts reside on X client or X server machine

[Mayuresh <may...@ac...>]

I have been trying to get mlterm work for devanagari fonts.

My X11 server runs on NetBSD. mlterm on NetBSD failed to render devanagari
fonts. So I am trying to launch mlterm from a Linux machine on the NetBSD
X11 server.

A basic question I have is, the required fonts, locales etc. are necessary
on which machine - client or the server, or which things are required
where?

I am sure mlterm has to link with some libraries required for devanagari,
so those should be on client. But what about the fonts? Aren't they
required on the X11 server's machine?
