   Robert Riches to All   
   [On-Topic] any favorite tutorials or oth

   (In the old days, it was appropriate to tag off-topic posts in   
   this newsgroup with the bracketed [OT].  Lately, it seems more   
   appropriate to tag on-topic posts with something.  1/2 :-)   
      
   Does anyone have favorite tutorials or other helps for dealing   
   with a high-DPI transition?   
      
   I'm Running Devuan (currently Daedalus, hopefully soon Excalibur)   
   using plain X and fvwm2, no DE as such with 1920x1200 monitors.   
   Just purchased a round of 4k monitors, so I'll be needing to   
   adjust xterm fonts, web browser issues, other GUI application   
   issues, etc.   
      
   For web browser issues, I anticipate a lot of fun with websites   
   and web apps that use (n)px directives for some of their margins   
   and spacing.  If the browser interprets those at face value,   
   mixed with other directives in units of text elements and such,   
   things could end up looking somewhat different from how the   
   developers intended.   
      
   Thanks!
