help with fonts

[Matthew Edwards-Winser <ma92mme@brunel.ac.uk>]

Hi there,

     I have got the newest version (patch 5), but it is giving me trouble
     when I try to compile the fonts, the error keep coming up :-

rm -f crossfire.bdf crossfire.snf
( cd bitmaps; ls | ../xbmtobdf -name crossfire -f ../bmaps -b - > ../crossfire.bdf )
chmod 644 crossfire.bdf
bdftosnf < crossfire.bdf > crossfire.snf
bdftosnf: (stdin): bad 'STARTFONT' at line 2
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `font'

     Can you help at all ???
