I am running Xterm and need to find the directory of the default bitmap font (misc-fixed). I have looked everywhere but still can't find it. Any ideas? Here's my output when I run
-report-fonts
:

I recently installed Arch with the i3-wm group package for context. Is it also possible the font is simply embedded inside a binary since I didn't explicitly install any fonts? Would love any insight!!
