Trying to get it to use Lucida Grande, I put (set-face-font 'default -apple-lucida grande-medium-r-normal--12-140-75-75-m-120-mac-roman) You usually shouldn't use `set-face-font'; instead set the various other face attributes. Does that mean we should mark set-face-font as obsolete?

Symptoms: The default face in Carbon Emacs is tiring the read (Courier, I think). I'd like to replace it with something easier to read. Unfortunately Emacs doesn't seem to be able to access the native Mac fonts, although I am not sure about this. Trying to get it to use Lucida Grande, I put
