I do not use that font. How many times should I repeat that tt > is *Emacs* who choses this font? Let me phrase it like this: I don't see that font with the stock Emacs, Kai doesn't see that font with the stock Emacs, probably most people here don't see that font with the stock Emacs. So someone told Emacs somewhere on your system to use that font. It could take place in /etc/X11/app-default/Emacs. Or maybe your GNU/Linux of Unix- distributor patched Emacs for your system? Or your sysadmin is to blame? Who knows? You could try to evaluate this: (create-fontset-from-fontset-spec "-*-courier-medium-r-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-ilya,\ ecyrillic-iso8859-5:-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-5") (set-face-font 'default "fontset-ilya") Does that change anything? (Note: you _must_ have a ISO 8859-5 encoded font on your system for this to work. You can look if you have one with the program xfontsel.) -- Oliver -- 7 Vendémiaire an 211 de la Révolution Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité!
