I have a Mandrake 8.1 system and I installed vim-X11 6.0-6mdk. When I
invoke /usr/X11R6/bin/gvim I get a very ugly font which I don't like.

I tried to set it. However neither:

/usr/X11R6/bin/gvim -font \
'-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1'

Nor:

/usr/X11R6/bin/gvim --cmd \
'set guifont=-adobe-courier-medium-r-normal-*-*-140-*-*-m-*-iso8859-1'

Nor putting the "set guifont=" line in my .vimrc set the font on startup.

I can set it up manually by typing "set guifont" after the window appears,
but it would be annoying to do it, every time vim starts.

What can I do?

Regards,
