Emacs on MAC OS X 10.3

[Dusan Turk <Dusan.Turk@siol.net>]

Dear Emacs developers,

I've downloaded the latest emacs 21.3.50.1 binary for MAC OS X 10.3. And 
almost none of the font changes works.  I am used to work with emacs 
invoking it by the following command on a variety of X11 based platforms:

emacs -ms yellow -cr yellow -bg black -fg green -fn 
-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-140-100-100-c-100-iso8859-1

By buying a Powerbook I would like to do the same.  The problem is that 
whatever font I try to set via the menu I get "Font not found".  With 
M-x set-frame-font - the lucida type seems to work and some other 
unuseful onse as well.

The font I want to use does exist (xfontsel, xlsfonts) find it.  Also 
xterm does recognize it and applies it.  So I assume that it is a bug in 
the Emacs distribution.  Would be great if it worked.

best regards,

dusan turk
