After the recent fonts reorganization, the font I (used to ) specify
for Emacs in my ~/.Xresources file no longer works:
Font `-adobe-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-96-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1' is not defined
Emacs will work if I comment out the font, albeit with a different
font and character size. My xterm font seems unchanged.
Ideally, what I would like is for my Emacs font to exactly match my
xterm font. How can I go about doing this?
Thanks - Jim
