Cygwin xemacs 21.4.14 fonts broken
I am installing xemacs on cygwin on a new PC and want to get a smaller font size like my old PC so more text can fit on the screen. I recently installed cygwin 1.5.7 and the xemacs 21.4.14 that came with it, but the fonts are broken. When I select Options->Font Size->, I see a greyed out menu item "Cannot parse current font". I also tried doing this programmatically according to http://www.xemacs.org/FAQ/xemacs-faq.html#SEC273, but that just got ignored. I also downloaded the latest xemacs installer from xemacs.org and tried that. This version seems to be an older XEmacs 21.4.13 and the fonts work there, but there is some other brokeness. For example, I am not able to run "dired" on a directory or use ediff. Any ideas? -Edwin PS: I tried some google searching but didn't come up with anything. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
