[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
I recently built from cvs and was happy to see the xft support. I copied some ttf's to /usr/share/fonts/ttf and started Emacs as follows: emacs --no-site-file --no-splash -fn 'dejavu sans mono-14' & The DejaVu font is displayed nicely for all text that is *not* fontified. However, fontified text is displayed using "fixed". How can I fix this? My window manager doesn't support truetype fonts, and I am assuming Emacs can support this since it says in the News: "This requires the freetype and fontconfig libraries, and supports local fonts (fonts installed on the machine where Emacs is running)." I have both freetype and fontconfig installed... as I mentioned, DejaVu is used for all text except text that is fontified. I'm hoping there is a way to use DejaVu for all text. When I do "M-x set-default-font", DejaVu is not listed there. Please let me know if I'm missing something or if I can provide more info. Thanks! ,----[ C-h v x-fixed-font-alist RET ] | x-fixed-font-alist is a variable defined in `mouse.el'. | Its value is shown below. | | Documentation: | X fonts suitable for use in Emacs. | | You can set this variable in your initialization file. | | Value: | ("Font Menu" | ("Misc" | ("Default" "-unknown-dejavu sans mono-regular-roman-normal--17-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-startup") | ("fixed" "fixed") | ("6x10" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--10-*-*-*-c-60-iso8859-1" "6x10") | ("6x12" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--12-*-*-*-c-60-iso8859-1" "6x12") | ("6x13" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-*-*-*-c-60-iso8859-1" "6x13") | ("7x13" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-*-*-*-c-70-iso8859-1" "7x13") | ("7x14" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-c-70-iso8859-1" "7x14") | ("8x13" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--13-*-*-*-c-80-iso8859-1" "8x13") | ("9x15" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--15-*-*-*-c-90-iso8859-1" "9x15") | ("10x20" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--20-*-*-*-c-100-iso8859-1" "10x20") | ("11x18" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--18-*-*-*-c-110-iso8859-1" "11x18") | ("12x24" "-misc-fixed-medium-r-normal--24-*-*-*-c-120-iso8859-1" "12x24") | ("") | ("clean 5x8" "-schumacher-clean-medium-r-normal--8-*-*-*-c-50-iso8859-1") | ("clean 6x8" "-schumacher-clean-medium-r-normal--8-*-*-*-c-60-iso8859-1") | ("clean 8x8" "-schumacher-clean-medium-r-normal--8-*-*-*-c-80-iso8859-1") | ("clean 8x10" "-schumacher-clean-medium-r-normal--10-*-*-*-c-80-iso8859-1") | ("clean 8x14" "-schumacher-clean-medium-r-normal--14-*-*-*-c-80-iso8859-1") | ("clean 8x16" "-schumacher-clean-medium-r-normal--16-*-*-*-c-80-iso8859-1") | ("") | ("sony 8x16" "-sony-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-*-*-*-c-80-iso8859-1") | ("lucidasanstypewriter-12" "-b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-sans-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1") | ("lucidasanstypewriter-bold-14" "-b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-*-140-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1") | ("lucidasanstypewriter-bold-24" "-b&h-lucidatypewriter-bold-r-normal-sans-*-240-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1")) | ("Courier" | ("8" "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--*-80-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("10" "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--*-100-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("12" "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--*-120-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("14" "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--*-140-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("18" "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--*-180-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("24" "-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--*-240-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("8 bold" "-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--*-80-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("10 bold" "-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--*-100-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("12 bold" "-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--*-120-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("14 bold" "-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--*-140-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("18 bold" "-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--*-180-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("24 bold" "-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--*-240-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("8 slant" "-adobe-courier-medium-o-normal--*-80-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("10 slant" "-adobe-courier-medium-o-normal--*-100-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("12 slant" "-adobe-courier-medium-o-normal--*-120-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("14 slant" "-adobe-courier-medium-o-normal--*-140-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("18 slant" "-adobe-courier-medium-o-normal--*-180-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("24 slant" "-adobe-courier-medium-o-normal--*-240-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("8 bold slant" "-adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--*-80-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("10 bold slant" "-adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--*-100-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("12 bold slant" "-adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--*-120-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("14 bold slant" "-adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--*-140-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("18 bold slant" "-adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--*-180-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1") | ("24 bold slant" "-adobe-courier-bold-o-normal--*-240-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1"))) | | [back] `---- In GNU Emacs 23.0.60.2 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars) of 2008-03-28 on zzz.zzz.com Windowing system distributor `NetSarang Computer, Inc.', version 11.0.3004 configured using `configure '--prefix=/pete/usr/emacs'' Important settings: value of $LC_ALL: nil value of $LC_COLLATE: nil value of $LC_CTYPE: nil value of $LC_MESSAGES: nil value of $LC_MONETARY: nil value of $LC_NUMERIC: nil value of $LC_TIME: nil value of $LANG: en_US.UTF-8 value of $XMODIFIERS: nil locale-coding-system: utf-8-unix default-enable-multibyte-characters: t Major mode: Python Minor modes in effect: outline-minor-mode: t shell-dirtrack-mode: t minibuffer-electric-default-mode: t cua-mode: t show-paren-mode: t global-auto-revert-mode: t which-function-mode: t display-time-mode: t auto-image-file-mode: t mouse-wheel-mode: t file-name-shadow-mode: t global-font-lock-mode: t font-lock-mode: t blink-cursor-mode: t global-auto-composition-mode: t auto-composition-mode: t auto-compression-mode: t column-number-mode: t line-number-mode: t transient-mark-mode: t Recent messages: Loading search-completions...done Loading escreen...done Loading /root/.session...done For information about GNU Emacs and the GNU system, type C-h C-a.
