This is: xorg-server 1.6.3-1 OK emacs 23.1-10 OK cygwin 1.7.0-61 OK font-alias 1.0.1-1 OK Until now, I belive I was using: font-bh-lucidatypewriter-dpi75 1.0.0-1 OK I get now under emacs: (list-fontsets) Fontset: -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-default Fontset: -*-fixed-medium-r-normal-*-16-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-standard Fontset: -monotype-Courier New-normal-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-*-0-fontset-startup In fact, I might be happy with 'Courier New' (fixed fonts anyway!) if it wasn't for one glitch: the bold font is narrower than the normal one!? In my emacs shell, the command is in bold once you have run it, but not while you edit it. It means that the command you edit doesn't align with the previous one which failed, and which you are just fixing. Of the two widths, I prefer the narrower one (I find the width/height ratio of the medium Courier New less readable). So, may I align the widths?
