not only can you not unset the font with d.font.freetype after setting it
once, you can't change it to something else either. (without closing the xmon)

this works fine in GRASS 6.2.0

I cannot reproduce this.

The following sequence does what I'd expect:

$ d.mon start=x0
$ d.font.freetype font=luximr
$ echo hello world | d.text at=0,90 color=red
$ d.font.freetype font=luxisbi
$ echo hello world | d.text at=0,80 color=blue

"nevermind" works for me too, I was trying the <=6.2 way.

I've now removed the "release font" part of the d.font.freetype help
page in 6.3cvs.

closing bug.
