Thanks... I had forgotten how to do that. However, in this case... It did no good. Still listing all fonts by calling M-x : set-default-font <spc><spc> [...] <spc> That listing produced does not include any inconsolata, and in fact no ttf at all. Something odd, I noticed too. In the fonts directory at /usr/share/fonts/truetype... I see: freefont ttf-dejavu ttf-liberation ttf-sil-gentium openoffice ttf-inconsolata ttf-lyx ttf-sil-gentium-basic All the ttf font files end in *.ttf. For example the lyx set: ls /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-lyx cmex10.ttf cmr10.ttf esint10.ttf msam10.ttf rsfs10.ttf cmmi10.ttf cmsy10.ttf eufm10.ttf msbm10.ttf wasy10.ttf But inconsolata is different and there is only one: ls /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-inconsolata Inconsolata.otf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
