Hi all,
I'm using emacs 22.2.1, from the ubuntu 64 bit repository. My .emacs file
contains the following as last line:
(set-frame-font "-*-Courier-bold-*-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")
(setq initial-frame-alist '((width . 100)(height . 40)) )
However, the startup font is not the selected one. If I select the same font
from the options/set font menu I can get such font working. This is really
annoying, is there a way to force the startup font?
Thanks,
Luca

I believe you want
(set-default-font "-*-Courier-bold-*-*-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")
but I couldn't tell you for sure. I use M-x customize-face default to
get my font working the way I want it.

Sorry, this is not working. Emacs is behaving the same way, that is it still
ignores the setting.

Anything else I could try to set up the fonts?
