3. Emacs crash

I cannot reproduce this here.

In general, trying to use Emacs with arbitrary fonts is not a good
idea, as not every font can be used by Emacs.

Thanks for your prompt response!


1. I can ditch this code. It's from: https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/GoodFonts. I'll try updating them.


2. On the other hand, throwing at emacs anything "reasonable" without it crashing is an advantage. What is reasonable is not my call :-o


3. The code did work nice a couple of times. The crash started after removing/adding fonts to the system. I can try retracing the culprit font, if you find it worthwhile, or just move on.



Have a great day!
