And here I don't see it=85 I have no idea. I am using the one that came with the refresh done by my I= T. I strongly prefer to do fs/kernel development and not be a sys admin. So I'll take your word for it that I'm using the "NS variant of GNU Emacs". Meanwhile, I'd be really happy with a normal sized font that spaces tab characters at a full "ell" instead of 3/4 of one. But all the flexibility of fonts in emacs has made font selection opaque to me. How do I just get courier? Thank you! Regards, Bruce
