On GNU/Linux Kubuntu 7.10 (GTK build), I usually use emacs23 --font "DejaVu Sans Mono-10" & but now I have to use at least "DejaVu Sans Mono-14", otherwise all is too small (too small!) Note that DejaVu Sans Mono-10 is the default value used in Konsole (for which it is even to big!) On Cygwin (Lucida+xft), I have in .Xdefaults: Emacs.FontBackend: xft Emacs.font: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-14 URxvt*font: xft:Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:size=14:medium roman:antialias=true But now I have to use at least "Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-16" while for urxvt is still valid size=14! Why are there these difference between Emacs and the other applications? Are we sure that the changes in the last 24 hours are correct? Cheers, Angelo.
