Thank you! I tried it again and now it works globally. According to my notes, I tried it first on 2004 Apr 14 and again on May 4, but found that the fix was buffer-local. I still needed Miles' patch to get it to work globally. Now I don't. I simply put (custom-set-faces '(Buffer-menu-buffer-face ((t (:weight normal)))) ... ) in my .emacs file. This is with Today's CVS snapshot, Tue, 2004 May 11 21:45 UTC GNU Emacs 21.3.50.5 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.2.4) but using src/fontset.c version 1.82 rather than the new 1.86, since version 1.86 prevented a bootstrap build. (My apologies, but I inadvertently overwrote the *compilation* buffer and cannot remember the bug.) -- Robert J.
