Some GUIs will allow you to use the command

  set guifont=*

Which brings up a font selection window.  If that works, you can select a font
and then use

  set guifont

to find out exactly what to add to your .vimrc

I just installed vim 7 on my linux system at work (more specifically

is installed in my home/bin directory as I don't have root permissions.
All comments seem to come out underlined and the fonts for everything
including the menus are different to before, I don't know how to check
the current font setting, but when I type :set, there doesn't seem to be
anything that would have changed the font listed. Anyone had the same
problems?

:set guifont?

Thanks Yakov and Peter, it appears that the problem may be more with Vim7 finding the fonts on my system. I had Sans regular 12 on Vim6.3 and the list of fonts there is greater than that in Vim7, do I need to tell Vim where to look for fonts, if so how do I check where Vim 6.3 looks and tell Vim 7 to look there as well. I think this is because 6.3 is a network wide install and 7 is installed in my home directory.

Thanks,
Rob.
