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 -- ******************************************************************** Dusan Turk e-mail: dusan.turk@ijs.si Dept. of Biochem. and Mol.
