That's true, but given the screen resolution of my display all

to know the name of the resource specifying this font. And if I knew
that, I could as well use the fonts I'm used to.
Thus I still need to know that resource name.
Any takers?
Take a look in etc/Emacs.ad in the source distribution. I see the
following occurrences of that font:
*menubar*Font: -*-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*
*popup*Font: -*-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*
*menubar*FontSet: -*-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*, \
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-120-*-iso10646-1, \
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-120-*-jisx0208.1983-0, \
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-120-*-jisx0201.1976-0
*popup*FontSet: -*-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*, \
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-120-*-iso10646-1, \
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-120-*-jisx0208.1983-0, \
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-120-*-jisx0201.1976-0
*XmDialogShell*FontList: -*-helvetica-bold-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*
There is also an instance of that font baked into the source code; see
lwlib/xlwmenu.c, line 86, which is only used if your XEmacs is built
with Motif support.
I will note that, for the purposes of building XEmacs for the Fedora
Linux distribution, I replace all of those "iso8859" specifiers with
"*", because most of the available fonts are Unicode fonts these days.
