Hi Yakov,
:set guifont?
yields the same result in both cases:
guifont=
with no font specified, but the fonts are not the same, hence I think
they must be looking at a different default font somewhere. If I knew
what the actual font it was using in vim6.3 was, then I would be able to
do something, but I can't see how to find out. Any ideas anyone?
I do not know of other way other than brute-froce searching in
'set guifont=*' for the right name/size. I have:
:set guifont=Monospace\ 9
in my vimrc (this is GTK2 gvim) but font names are different depending
on gui flavor of gvim.
Take a look at Antonie's tip

"Setting the font in the GUI"

Thanks Yakov, I will look over Antoine's tip in more detail tonight and
see if I can't find a solution.
Many thanks,
Rob.
