However, i use color-theme in .emacs to load my colors: (require 'color-theme) (color-theme-initialize) (color-theme-aalto-light) and when using: (setq default-frame-alist '( (font . "10x20") )) the color theme loads fine for the initial window, but then when i make a new emacs window with 'C-x 5 2' my color them doesn't load at least the background color properly. is there a way around this? thanks, ryan to set the font size . .emacs On Monday 11 June 2007 6:26 pm, Peter Dyballa wrote: > Am 11.06.2007 um 23:26 schrieb Ryan Moszynski: > > however, if i start the emacs session from a terminal or as root, i > > have to > > either type the "-font 10x20" every time, or change the font after > > i start > > emacs through shift/left-click.
