I have the impression that you're referring to the -1 in -misc-fixed-bold-*-*-*-*-140-75-75-*-*-*-1, in which case it has nothing to do with Emacs or with fontsets. It's in your Xresource setting and specifies a font whose CHARSET_ENCODING is 1 (I suspect that it it intended to only match fonts whose CHARSET_REGISTRY is iso8859, so that together you get iso8859-1 which I'm sure you recognize). But maybe that was obvious and you're actually talking about something else. > P.S. Apparently, the configuration of the site cannot be changed > (given that Netscape can break).

Maybe something like (create-fontset-from-fontset-spec "-misc-fixed-bold-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-ilya,\ cyrillic-iso8859-5:-etl-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-5") (set-face-font 'default "fontset-ilya") -- Stefan
