Hi all,

I'm trying to get this python app (atom3) running, which used to work 
perfectly fine, but now insists on showing all messages (any GUI text for 
that matter) in some greek-looking font (probably "symbol" or something). 

Mind you, the messages are NOT greek, but english, just the font looks greek.

That makes me conclude what I need is a change of font, but the question is 
how do I do that?

loading an options file with *font... things doesn't help. Besides, modifying 
the source code is not really desirable.

I'm suspecting that the mapping on my system for e.g. helvetica somehow points 
to "symbol". Is there a way to change this?

I'm using debian linux btw, with python 2.4.4

Thanks,

Hans
