I always used inconsolata > and it worked before. My guess is that incosolata does not have all the graphics characters, so emacs drops to a different font when displaying them. For some reason it is now dropping to some other different font and the display is getting messed up. I think what-cursor-position called with a prefix argument (so C-u M-x what-cursor-position) tells you (amongst other things) the font under the cursor. For me, when using incosalata as default font, the quarter circles and arrow heads are in some different font. I don't know what the fix would be if this is the problem but lets see if it the problem first! Best wishes Mark
