Fontsize on startup

Fontsize on startup

[Stefan Bienert]

Hello,

I am kind of new to emacs but getting deeper into it day by day...

One problem I couldnt solve with the help of google is the font size, emacs 
starts with.
I always have to go to the options menu, choose Mule and Set Font/ Fontset by 
myself...there is a way to but it into the .emacs, I guess...but how?

best regards,

bienchen

You can put entries in your ~/.Xresources file like this:

Emacs.font:                     -*-terminus-medium-r-*--14-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1
Emacs*menubar*Font:             -*-terminus-bold-r-*--14-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1

(These changes will take effect on the next start ot X11, if you do not
use xrdb to apply then on a running X11.)

You could try something like this too:

         (setq initial-frame-alist '(
           (border-color . "#4e3832")
           (foreground-color . "grey10")
           (background-color . "honeydew")
           (font . "fontset-10pt_lucidatypewriter")
           (top . 5) (left . 500) (width . 106) (height . 50))
         )
         (setq default-frame-alist '(
           (background-color . "LightCyan1")
;         (background-color . "ivory")
;         (background-color . "ghost white")
           (cursor-color . "purple")
           (cursor-type . box)
           (foreground-color . "grey10")
           (vertical-scroll-bars . left)
;         (font . "fontset-11pt_adobe_courier")
           (font . "-adobe-courier-medium-r-*-11-*-iso10646-1")
           (top . 25) (left . 50) (width . 89) (height . 50))
         )

I have this in my .emacs (MS Windows build, w32, but it should be very
similar under X):

(custom-set-faces
  ;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom -- don't edit or cut/paste it!
  ;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.


 '(default ((t (:stipple nil :background "white" :foreground "black"
:inverse-video nil :box nil :strike-through nil :overline nil :underline
nil :slant normal :weight normal :height 108 :width normal :family
"outline-arial unicode ms")))))


I think I got it in there via menu--
Options
Customize Emacs
Specific face
Tab (Show all)
default

then fill in the blanks

Cheers,
