Assistance with font configuration /etc/fonts/local.conf

Hello,

I would like to replace all non-monospace fonts with Semplice Regular, size 6px, and all Monospace fonts with Profont, size 8.

After messing around with the configuration for two days, I have come to a sad realization that I have no clue.

In particular, these lines of code amaze me the most:

<match target="pattern" name="family">
        <test name="family" qual="any" compare="not_eq" >
          <string>monospace</string>
    </test>
        <edit mode="assign" name="family" >
          <string>Semplice Regular</string>
        </edit>
</match>

I would expect that it would replace all-monospace with Semplice Regular, leaving the size unmodified for now as I was trying to get at least something working. However, what it does, is that it makes me unable to use almost all fonts and replaces those with a generic one.

Could someone enlighten me on the matter? Thank you!

Your rule might need "fixed" instead of, or as well as, "monospace".
