I am trying to set a particular font and default window size, but I run
into a problem. I get the font I want, but when emacs starts, just as it
starts, before it sets the required font, it momentarily uses a larger
font. The window size I ask for uses the entire screen height, so that
larger font causes emacs to ignore my screen size request and use a much
smaller, standard screen size.
So I am having to specify a smaller size than I want so that the larger
font only just fits the screen, but then my reduced window when the
correct font takes over is smaller than I want.
I start emacs with:
emacs -i -geometry 85x64 <<< I really want 99x60 here.
My .emacs contains the following lines related to font settings:
(custom-set-faces
;; custom-set-faces was added by Custom.
;; If you edit it by hand, you could mess it up, so be careful.
;; Your init file should contain only one such instance.
;; If there is more than one, they won't work right.
'(default ((t (:inherit nil :stipple nil :inverse-video nil :box nil
:strike-through nil :overline nil :underline nil :slant normal :weight
normal :height 90 :width normal :foundry "bitstream" :family "Bitstream
Vera Sans Mono"))))
'(header-line ((((class color grayscale) (background light)) (:inherit
mode-line :background "grey90" :foreground "grey20" :box nil :height 0.5
:width condensed))))
'(mouse ((t (:background "black")))))
This is the font I want, but emacs starts up with some other font. Can
that be changed?
