Hi,
I am trying to set up a .emacs file to customise the 'default' face and the
main 'menu' at start up. I am a new Emacs user and fairly new to GNU Linux.
I have created the .emacs file via the command, m-x set-face-display.
This command allows me to activate customisation buffers to modify the
foreground and background colours and the font sizes for both the 'default'
face and the 'menu' face.
If I try 'Set for current Session', then all the changes work fine. If I try
'Save for future Sessions' and then shutdown and restart Emacs, then I find
that the colour changes work but the fonts fail to re-size.
Am I doing something wrong?
thanks,
Brent

Mandrake Linux 10.1 Community Edition,
