How to make Graphviz use ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf by default?

OK, thanks, I wasn’t clear. By “what ‘fires’ mean” I meant “how you check that it fires”. “Fires” is clear for me here. But it might be just because I’m not used to see this word in any other context, and this in turn becase I’m not a native English speaker.

But what is this behavior to show?


I thought that this thread could benefit from having a clearer picture of it all, so I made, naturally, a graph.

[dot]
digraph {
graphviz:se
→ pango:ne
[ label = “?” ]

pango:se
    -> fontconfig:ne
    [ label = "?" ]

fontconfig:nw
    -> pango:sw
    [ label = "?" ]

pango:nw
    -> graphviz:sw
    [ label = "?" ]

}
[/dot]

PS. Why doesn’t the [dot] tag work?

PS2. Interesting. I visited Render Graphviz graphs directly in your posts a few minutes ago, and the graphs there seemed to be being rendered properly. Now they are not.

PS3. I’ve made a note about it in that thread, Render Graphviz graphs directly in your posts - #26 by decision-making-mike

Update. Having [dot] not working sometimes, let’s have at least a standalone PNG version of the diagram.

Update 2. I’ve labeled it (and changed the font (to Gentium)).
