To conditionally run different sections of the .emacs file.

Not the fontmanager.  From the K^ in the lower left of the panel:

Settings->Desktop->Fonts ect.

I've got "General font" set to "helvetica", 12 pt,  iso-8859-1
and "Fixed font" set to "fixed", 10 pt,  iso-8859-1.

good luck.
Will

Yes, I think the same. But I've try with all the fonts from the
fontmanager with no success. What are your settings ?

Why should I test it ? If I simply go to the menu and give Help->Ahow
version...
it responds it's a GNU Emacs 20.2.2. Is this important ?

Play with the default font settings in KDE.  Mine did this too,  at first,
I changed the fonts around a few times,  and now it's working fine.  I
think it has to do partially with the difference between proportional and
non-proportional fonts.

> 2. to change .emacs to work with XEMACS.
Someone just posted a test for emacs version.  I also keep extra font-lock
settings and stuff around in a .xemacs-extras and do a load-file on them
if .emacs determines that we're really running xemacs.

Re: Problems with KDE, emacs and xemacs

1998-05-13 Thread Jens B. Jorgensen
Why not make a test expression on emacs-version? For example:

(if (string-equal emacs-version "20.2.2") (print "hello, 20.2.2 user"))
