I am using GNU Emacs 31.3.50.1 (power pc-apple-darwin 7.3.0)
of 2004-03-12 on cabledoc14.frazmtn.com
Here are the exact commands that I have in my .emacs:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------
(create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
"-apple-courier-medium-r-normal--12-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-courier,
ascii:-apple-courier-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-m-120-mac-roman,
latin-iso8859-1:-apple-courier-medium-r-normal--12-120-75-75-m-120-mac-
roman")
(setq default-frame-alist '((width . 80)
(height . 36)
(font . "fontset-courier")))
(create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
"-apple-courier-medium-r-normal--24-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-courier,
ascii:-apple-courier-medium-r-normal--24-240-75-75-m-240-mac-roman,
latin-iso8859-1:-apple-courier-medium-r-normal--24-240-75-75-m-240-mac-
roman")
(setq default-frame-alist '((width . 64)
(height . 36)
(font . "fontset-courier"))
)
