6/13    When I start xterm with "xterm -fn \*bold\*", it comes up with a
        nice looking font.  However, when I start emacs 20.3.1 with "emacs -fn
        \*bold\*", it appears to be using the same font except that the line
        spacing is much bigger.  How do I find out which fonts xterm and emacs
        are actually using?  Or how do I adjust the line spacing in emacs?
        I'm running them under SunOS 5.7 and displaying them on NT via Exceed
        6.0.2.0, if that matters.  Thanks.  -- yuen
        \_ Why don't you go through VNC and PCAnywhere as well while you're
           at it?  And maybe get Cygwin in there somewhere, too.
           \_ The Exceed came with the standard setup by the IS&T people here.
              I didn't install it myself.  -- yuen
           \_ What's wrong with using an X server on NT?
                \_ Speaks for itself.  Think about it.
                   \_ Not really. X on Windows it the best of both worlds.
                      \_ So you get dirt slow graphics over the net on top of
                         a shitty second rate OS?  Yeah... great.
