Re: Setting font to Lucida Grande on Mac OS X

[Luc Teirlinck]

What about the following patch, which incorporates the suggestions
made by Stephen and Jason?  It still refers at one point to the
combined "registry-encoding" entity as a "character set", because I
believe that will make more sense to most people than "registry" and
"encoding", but I point out that it is not identical with MULE
character sets.
