I just made a new installation of bo, and emacs no longer seems to read my ~/.Xdefaults file like it used to in rex.
~ $ cat ~/.Xdefaults emacs.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-*-*-*-c-60-iso8859-1 ~ $ cat ~/.Xdefaults-globe emacs.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-*-*-*-c-60-iso8859-1 ~ $ hostname globe ~ $ emacs ~ $ echo "That one came up with the big ugly default font." That one came up with the big ugly default font. ~ $ emacs -fn "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-*-*-*-c-60-iso8859-1" ~ $ echo "That one came up with the nice small font that I want." That one came up with the nice small font that I want. ~ $ How can I get this to work again?
