Well, when I mentioned this, this were all the options. ;-) But
meanwhile I tested it with -no-site-file too.

How would I find it?

Hmm, do not remember seeing this message...

OK, *this* I can do remotely. ;-) Done:
name: -cronyx-courier-bold-o-normal--10-100-75-75-m-60-iso8859-5
direction: left to right
indexing: linear
rows: 0x00 thru 0x00 (0 thru 0)
columns: 0x20 thru 0xff (32 thru 255)
all chars exist: no
default char: 0x0020 (32)
ascent: 13
descent: 3
font type: Monospaced (font width not equal to AVERAGE_WIDTH)
bounds: width left right asc desc attr keysym
min 10 -1 -1 -1 -11 0x0000
max 10 7 14 12 3 0x0000

FONT
-Cronyx-Courier-Bold-O-Normal--10-100-75-75-M-60-RAWIN-R
WEIGHT 10
RESOLUTION 132
X_HEIGHT 13
QUAD_WIDTH 10
Etc. A lot of them... In fact there are 3 fonts which have
CHARSET_REGISTRY ISO8859, they have FOUNDRY ETL. How do I convince
emacs to use them in preference to FOUNDRY Cronyx ones?
BTW, why -etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-160-72-72-c-80-iso8859-5 is
not prefered to the other guy automatically? What are the criteria?
-etl-fixed-medium-r-normal--14-140-72-72-c-70-iso8859-5
-misc-fixed-bold-*-*-*-*-140-75-75-*-*-*-1
-Cronyx-Fixed-Medium-R-Normal--15-140-75-75-C-90-RAWIN-R.
What can a sysadm do to fix this misconfiguration of thinking that
rawin-r is iso8859-5 (if it is one)?
