           Summary: X server logs font path all one one very long unreadable
                    line.
           Product: xorg
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Server/general
        AssignedTo: xorg-bugzilla-noise at freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: mharris at www.linux.org.uk


The X server logs the complete fontpath to the log, however it is
all on one very long line, which is rather unreadable.

(**) FontPath set to
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1,/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/hanyang,/usr/share/fonts/default/Type1,/usr/share/fonts/ko/saemmul,/usr/share/fonts/hanyang"

A nice minor enhancement to break this up on FPE boundaries would make the
font path more readable, and also help to spot font path related issues
in bug reports.

Something like:
(**) FontPath set to:
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi:unscaled,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TTF,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1,
        /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/hanyang,
        /usr/share/fonts/default/Type1,
        /usr/share/fonts/ko/saemmul,
        /usr/share/fonts/hanyang

If nobody objects, I'll create a patch to do this, and commit to CVS.
