> How do i set a font for the current frame?

M-x icicle-font S-TAB

Choose any available font, using completion. Use `M-SPC', if you want to match
different font parts separately (taking the intersection).

(set-frame-parameter nil 'font "-*-Courier
New-normal-r-*-*-14-112-96-96-c-*-iso8859-1")

or whatever font you want.

M-: (frame-parameters) is your friend.
