Why do you think so? Admittedly, Emacs.bold.attributeFont: -bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-bold-r-*-*-*-100-*-*-*-*-*-* looks like XLFD, but on my machine I have no X font of this name: #xlsfonts -fn "*vera*" xlsfonts: pattern "*vera*" unmatched and this XLFD also does not work with other X applications. So my (totally uneducated) guess is that emacs23-xft somehow uses XLFD syntax also for truetype fonts, but in an slightly inconsistent way (otherwise, bold & italic xft fonts should work automagically). Perhaps someone who really understands this can explain it? PS: Sorry for destroying the threading. I'm still not subscribed to this list and read it through the archive http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-pretest-bug which doesn't show message-ids. Perhaps it's time to subscribe... -- Meik Hellmund Institut fuer Mathematik, Uni Leipzig e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.math.uni-leipzig.de/~hellmund _______________________________________________ emacs-pretest-bug mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-pretest-bug
