It is possible to start cooledit while specifying some other fonts: cooledit -font 8x13bold file & But when I try to load some other font with "cooledit -font <font-name>" I get crashes immediately after entering text unless I specify a file on the command line. So there are other problems indeed. The cooledit source code has been stagnant for some time and probably needs a lot of updating. At least the patch I included in my original post works for me.
