In emacs, how do I know which one is the font configuration for the
following font described in windows ?

"courier new","size 11"

-outline-Courier New-normal-i-normal-normal-*-*-110-110-c-*-*-#163
-outline-Courier New-normal-i-normal-normal-*-*-110-110-c-*-iso8859-1
.
.
.


and so on...

I don't know which part describes the font and so on....

Could anybody suggest me what they are using for the font?
Thanks

Search for XLFD (X Logical Font Description). For example, the "size
11" above is the 7th field (pixels) in a XLFD font name, "Courier New"
is the typeface family (family), the second field:
-foundry-family-weight-slant-setwidth-addstyle-pixels-points-horiz-vert-spacing-avgwidth-rgstry-encoding

I'm using

-xos4-Terminus-Medium-R-Normal--14-140-72-72-C-80-ISO8859-1

Position the cursor on one character in this fontset and press C-u C- 
x =. With GNU Emacs 22 you'll be informed in a *Help* buffer which  
particular font is used for this.
