I suggest that you select a font from the dialog (set guifont=*) and
then check font's name with
set guifont
command. You should see something like this in the bottom of the Vim
window:
guifont=Tahoma 9
If you want to set that font from the Vim command line or put it in your
~/.vimrc file escape spaces with a backslash (\):
set guifont=Tahoma\ 9
