Thanks!

Okay, I selected <adobe>, <courier>, and a <pxlsz> of 10, which is
what I want.  Then I clicked on <select>, and exited out of the win-
dow.  What do I do now to get <Emacs> to default to this font?  I
tried just bringing up <Emacs> again and it still used the old font.
I even tried putting
"Emacs.Font: -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-m-60-
iso10646-1"
into my ".Xdefaults" file, and then brought up an <Emacs> editor, and
it still defaulted to the old font.  Anybody know what I'm doing
wrong?
