Sounds like your desktop resolution is too low. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Or emacs is trying to use a huge font. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
After setting your resolution to more reasonable size you can control |
| 16 |
emacs size, color, shape, font etc with lisp code. |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
If you want to delve into lisp I can copy paste some old code I've |
| 19 |
used from time to time but I'm not a lisp programmer at all. |
| 20 |
For that approach you will want to post on gnu.emacs.help newsgroup. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
You can also control emacs with a ~/.Xresources file. Thats how I |
| 23 |
like to do it. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
This will give you some ideas about how that might be done: |
| 26 |
(from ~/.Xresources) |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
emacs*Background: black |
| 29 |
emacs*Foreground: papayawhip |
| 30 |
emacs*pointerColor: white |
| 31 |
emacs*cursorColor: magenta |
| 32 |
emacs*bitmapIcon: on |
| 33 |
emacs*font: -misc-fixed-bold-r-normal--18-120-100-100-c-90-iso8859-1 |
| 34 |
emacs.geometry: 100x38 |
