I'm running my own Cocoa builds from CVS[1]. As of the 2009/01/02
build, I'm able to change the font by:
1. Selecting an Emacs frame - in this case, containing one window with
an ERC buffer visible.
2. Going to Options -> Set Default Font in the menubar.
3. Choosing Courier from the font menu.
I offer the following observations:
- Changing the default font from preferences doesn't work for me.
Perhaps it sets the default, but doesn't apply it? Have you tried
setting it, saving customizations, quitting and restarting Emacs?
- Changing via Options->Set Default Font works for me.
- Changing via M-x set-default-font RET courier RET works for me.
Also worked to switch back to Monaco.
Hope this helps,
- Ian
