Message-ID: <87d4hzouwt.fsf@cyd.mit.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20081016.221105.260429679.wl@gnu.org> (Werner LEMBERG's message of "Thu, 16 Oct 2008 22:11:05 +0200 (CEST)")
From what I understand, your default font is
-shinonome-gothic-medium-i-normal--16-*-75-75-c-80-iso8859-1
Because this is an X (non-Fontconfig) font, and the GTK file selection
dialog only handles Fontconfig fonts, the dialog cannot show your
current font. That's why it defaults to Sans, Standard, 12 pt.
What I don't understand, though is why Emacs fails to find the Monospace
font on your system. Does `emacs -Q -fn "mono-12"' give results
different from `emacs -Q -fn "monospace-12"'?
