is the way to do this.
Having reviewed the thread a little more carefully, I think the main problem is
that Bruce is trying to use the menus to manipulate TrueType fonts, and that
doesn't work for me at all at the moment. I don't think customize works, either
(there's a reason I tried to veto this feature many years ago!) You need to use
`set-face-font' in init.el.
To find out what fonts you have installed, at the command line
"fc-list: family"
will list the families (I forget how to do this in elisp, probably
(fc-list ":" "family")
will do it). There are usually a *lot*; I suggest filtering with grep
or piping to
sort | less or similar to browse. To set fonts in the editor, use M-x
set-face-font.
