Suggestions welcome. [...] What exactly did you try to achieve? What did you expect? This is obviously a line that was put there via the customize interface. Did you copy it into you .emacs? If so: customize isn't supposed to be used that way. Try `M-x customize-face RET default RET' and set it according to your preferences. [`:size' is not the right keyword for Emacs. It has to be `:height'.] Or do you want to know what Elisp code you should put into you .emacs to get such a default face? Oliver -- 24 Ventôse an 211 de la Révolution Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité!
