Define some more fonts and fontsets ŕ la: (setq x-fixed-font-alist '("X11 Font Menu" ("Misc fixed" ;; For these, we specify the pixel height and width. ("«ProFont»" "»ProFont«") ("ISO 10646-1" ("24 bold slant" "-adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--*-240-75-75-m-*-iso10646-1" "24 bold slant") > 2. How can I make emacs come up in full screen mode each time it starts? xdpyinfo tells your screen's size. In .Xdefaults you can put: Emacs*geometry: 1440x900 -- Greetings Pete Do I have to do all of the above just to get 14 pt font instead of the default 12 pt? Also, I created a .Xdefaults file and put in: Emacs*geometry 1280x1024 It didn't work for me. Many thanks, Joe
