I don't know how to do this. In console mode you can type chvt 2 but it
won't work in X. I rarely use X.

Use this 6x13 font for Portuguese, not to fix workbone. I simply used
workbone to test it with because it displays a bunch of upper ascii
characters. From an rxvt, type rxvt -fn 6x13 and then you will have
another rxvt with the new font. Does Portuguese look correct in it?
You only need Slackware fonts if you don't like the looks of this font.

Clever. We should all read instructions. workbone -h

I can't switch fonts right now on my TTL monitor but I get the point.
