If you're running under X11 (some random unix, linux, bsd, ...) you
can set this in your Xresources. I used to do this in my .emacs, but
the Xresources solution works better for me. When I set it in .emacs,
has already sized its first window before it finds out what font to
use and this interacts poorly with some window managers.
