Subject: bug#24597: 25.1; Fonts used by default in Info
Date: Mon, 3 Oct 2016 08:48:51 -0700 (PDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <a04f667d-7146-4f95-b0db-8cd20d5d91b9@default> (raw)
The fonts used (on MS Windows, at least) by default, for Info, are
these:
* For text in general:
uniscribe:-outline-Courier
New-normal-normal-normal-mono-17-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1 (#x52)
* For text enclosed in ‘...’:
gdi:-outline-Courier-normal-normal-normal-mono-17-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1
(#x65)
The latter comes from the default value of face `Info-quoted', which
specifies only the family (as courier).
Why use, by default, two **slightly** different looking fonts? They are
not different enough to make ‘...’ very noticeable. Nor are they the
same. What's the point of this choice?
In GNU Emacs 25.1.1 (x86_64-w64-mingw32)
of 2016-09-17 built on LAPHROAIG
Windowing system distributor 'Microsoft Corp.', version 6.1.7601
Configured using:
'configure --without-dbus --without-compress-install CFLAGS=-static'
