Hi all,
I'm trying to set up Emacs on Mac OS X (10.5.7) and am having some
problems with the font setup: The fonts I installed manually
(e.g. DejaVu and Inconsolata) don't show up when I'm trying to set the
default font via `M-x set-default-font'. Also, the font selection dialog
doesn't include those fonts, even though I can select them for other
applications, e.g. the Terminal. I've tried the automated nightly build
from [1] as well as compiled a CVS version from today with the following
options: "--with-ns --with-x --prefix=/my/prefix".
I'm new to Mac OS X, please let me know what I can do to figure out how
to set my preferred font. Thank you in advance!
Please tell me if this isn't the correct group and excuse any
inconvenience my message caused.
Cheers,
Felix Geller

I found the readson for why the fonts did not show up in the font
selection dialog: I had to install the fonts system-wide, rather than
solely for the current user. Is this the intended behavior?
Cheers,
Felix
