xemacs menu has LARGE fonts

2002-04-01 Thread Tim Dijkstra
Hi, I use xemacs for general purpose editing, but since my last apt-get upgrade (which upgraded a lot of packages) the menu bar has a really big font. I can't find a way to change the font it's using, can anybody help me with this? Thanks, Tim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
