Just some information from 'descibe-fontset':
start emacs -fn 'mono-10':
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fontset: -*-*-regular-r-*-*-13-*-*-*-*-0-fontset-startup
CHARSET or CHAR RANGE FONT NAME
--------------------- ---------
ascii -bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-regular-r-*-*-13-*-*-*-*-0-*-*
[-bitstream-bitstream vera sans mono-regular-r-*-*-13-*-*-118-*-0-*-*]
...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
start emacs with (set-default-font "mono-10"):
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fontset: -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-default
CHARSET or CHAR RANGE FONT NAME
--------------------- ---------
ascii -adobe-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1
[-bitstream-bitstream vera sans-regular-r-*-*-17-*-*-118-*-0-*-*]
...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basically, I need a setting in ~/.emacs that I have the same affect of
'emacs -fn 'mono-10''
Thanks.

| Any idea why the latter does not produce the same appearance? Any
| recommendation for setting a nice anti-aliased font?
