All this talk about xft convinced me to try it. So I turned it on. I'm
not convinced I like it better, but I am willing to give it a try.
A couple of things right of the bat... what font do people use? I find
the fonts are too big and look great, or are too small. I can't find an
in-between. I mainly use a laptop, so size matters ;)
When I select a font using Options->Font, it doesn't do anything. Is
this disabled under xft?
If I set the font using X properties, both the Options->Font and
Options->Fontsize say "Cannot parse current font". Not really a
problem, I just wonder if this is expected, or if I am specifying the
font wrong.
Last, I cannot set the menubar font using:
XEmacs*menubar.font: -*-lucida-medium-r-*-*-*-80-100-100-*-*-*-*
The menubar font is too large for my liking. I don't use the menubar
much. To be honest I keep it enabled for the people who say XEmacs is
hard to use.
Cheers,
Sean
