Re: Kanji font selection (Mule showstopper?)

mb> Does it work to set the fonts in Lisp? mb> (set-face-font 'default SJT> OK, this works (with fonts that I actually have, of SJT> course). On second look, no it doesn't. Further experimentation shows that XEmacs doesn't always use all of the specified fonts and the Options menu ends up in a state that may not correspond to _any_ of the visible fonts. (I haven't been able to replicate that last. But using lucidatypewriter as my iso8859-1 font in (set-face-font ...) is consistently ignored---even if current Options | Font setting is lucidatypewriter (it gets set to courier or fixed). Grrrr!) So what we have is a workaround that allows me to get back to a reasonable state---but not close to optimal. Probably I could deal with this if I really understood faces. But I doubt that many users do, well enough to get what they want. -- University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences Tel/fax: +1 (298) 53-5091
