Setting guifont in the _vimrc works just fine in Vim 7.4 on Windows 7. I've been using 7.4 since it came out of beta on Windows 7, and I set my font to DejaVu Sans Mono in my _vimrc. To set the font, I always use: :set guifont=* This brings up a dialog for me to select the font as I like it. Then I can :echo getfontname() to see what that turns into as a Vim option value. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
