Re: crash: Unable to load any usable fontset

The problem is that Microsoft is thumbing its nose at Adobe, I think. Many Windows X servers simply don't supply _any_ Helvetica font. XEmacs says it's asking for Helvetica, assumes it's going to get it (after all, it's distributed both as bitmaps and Type 1 with the core X distribution) and Xlib goes ahead and crashes if that's not found. XEmacs should catch this error and not crash, but in the long run the menubar will get a proper face and the point is moot. The user probably wants to use Arial:bold or something like that, anyway (however you say that in XLFD). -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
