Well, Drew understands my point fine. To repeat it (with emphasis added):
"In summary, Emacs 23 seems to have done everything it can possibly do to
defeat the efforts of a Windows user to change the font of a *frame*."
Juanma's answer was: use mouse-set-font (the X window version), to which the response is that it doesn't give a Windows font dialogue.
Your answer was: use S-mouse-1, to which the response is that it doesn't change the font of a frame.
The original question hasn't changed. We are just going in circles!
Nobody has said anything yet about why the original Windows version of mouse-set-font was thrown away.
Cheers,
Uday
