Subject: Anyone out there running emacs-23 on openSUSE and have good looking fonts?
Date: Fri, 18 Jul 2008 16:42:19 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4b75340e0807181342x3a627163y95c7acde8a4c6ed@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
It appears that I can get good looking fonts for the title bar/medu
bar, but the editor font looks bad. I know 'bad' is subjective, but I
don't know how else to describe it.
I've created an ~/.Xresources file with
Emacs*font: -bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-medium-r-*--*-100-*--*--*-
and also
Emacs*Font: Bitstream Vera Sans Mono:10
I also edited ~/.fonts.conf to be the following based on an FAQ on the
EmacsWiki page:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<match target="pattern" >
<edit mode="assign" name="rgba" >
<const>rgb</const>
</edit>
<edit mode="assign" name="hinting" >
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
<edit mode="assign" name="hintstyle" >
<const>hintslight</const>
</edit>
<edit mode="assign" name="antialias" >
<bool>true</bool>
</edit>
</match>
</fontconfig>
I'm hoping someone can help me out with getting the fonts looking good
in the editor (preferably Deja Vu or Bitstream Vera Sans).
Thanks everyone!
