Machine-dependant font configuration for Emacs
Alfontzo provides a font configuration per operating system type and machine — e.g. you work on your Laptop and use Fira Code at size 14, but on your desktop you have a display with a higher resolution and thus want to work with Consolas at size 18. Alfontzo provides M-x alfontzo-fontface and M-x alfontzo-typescale as a fast and convenient way of setting fontface and size on your current machine and stores them in custem-set.el to remember it for the next time Emacs is used on that specific machine.
I use Emacs across different machines across the day (Macbook at work with Retina displays, Macbook Air at home, Linux machine at home with an older 1280px display). On each machine, I prefer a different font size, because each machine has a different screen resolution.
A. Initialization without further customizations:
(use-package alfontzo
:ensure t
:config
(alfontzo-init))- Use
M-x alfontzo-typescaleto change and store the font-size for the current machine - Use
M-x alfontzo-fontfaceto change and store the font-face for the current machine
B. Initialization with customizations for operating systems:
(use-package alfontzo
:ensure t
:config
;; Set the default font-sizes per operating system type
(setq alfontzo-os-font-size-map
`((,alfontzo-os-windows . 13)
(,alfontzo-os-mac . 14)
(,alfontzo-os-linux . 11)))
;; Set the default font-face per operating system type
(setq alfontzo-os-font-name-map
`((,alfontzo-os-windows . "Consolas")
(,alfontzo-os-mac . "Menlo")
(,alfontzo-os-linux . "Courier")))
(alfontzo-init))C. Initialization with pre-defined configurations for machines:
(use-package alfontzo
:ensure t
:config
(setq alfontzo-host-font-name-map
'(("YOUR_FIRST_HOST_NAME_HERE" . "Menlo")
("YOUR_SECOND_HOST_NAME_HERE" . "Consolas")))
(setq alfontzo-host-font-scales-map
'(("YOUR_FIRST_HOST_NAME_HERE" . 12)
("YOUR_FIRST_HOST_NAME_HERE" . 18)))
