I don't recall it's been happening since when, but there's no text
in lucid menu bar.  It may be due to Fedora 14 to which I upgraded
recently.  Only workaround I know is to set LC_ALL C when launching
Emacs.  Any idea?

Thanks.

Closed this thread since it doesn't seem to be a bug.

I guess something has changed in Emacs trunk just before I upgraded
Fedora into 14 in October 25.  But that's ok.  After a long time
I created the ~/.Xdefaults file with these two items:

Emacs.pane.menubar.faceName:	none
Emacs.pane.dialog.faceName:	none

I had no X resource for Emacs for over ten years because:

1. I'd like to use a true vanilla Emacs when testing something.
2. Some X resources conflicted between Emacs and XEmacs.
3. Most things can be controlled with ELisp.

So, I'd be happy if there are ELisp interfaces to those faceName
items, including (set-face-font 'menu "FONT") that works. :)

Regards,
