I know you didn't want to hear about non-fixed-width fonts, but I use Palatino
(comes with Solaris as an F3 font, but there's pcf's there, so you can take
them away and use them on, say, Linux ;-) for my default font, and Gill Sans
(prolly my favourite font at the moment - kind of like helvetica only better)
for menus and modelines and stuff like that.

I live for proportional fonts...Long live XEmacs ! :)

Any word on VISA payment for the TShirts, Lars ?  I kind of feel better doing
that than sending cash to the other side of the world, but i'll send cash if
need be.

Enjoy,
 Andrew.
