Got it, eventually!

set-default-font is an alias for 'set-frame-font'

which did, eventually, take one of those strings.

For a moderate size, I finished up using

(set-default-font "-courier-medium-r-normal--14-140-75-75-m-90-iso8859-1")

90 instead of 110,
14 - 140 instead of Peter's 18-180.

Sigh. I don't like magic incantations.
Anyone know how to translate that string?

Anyway its working, I'm back in emacs, psgml has transferred OK,
not checked which version yet though.

TIA DaveP
