Cause the FixedSys font sucks as it cannot display Czech characters, and I don't want to have to go to the menu to change it every time I open a file that contains Czech characters. Thanks.
Setting guifont in the _vimrc works just fine in Vim 7.4 on Windows 7. I've been using 7.4 since it came out of beta on Windows 7, and I set my font to DejaVu Sans Mono in my _vimrc.
To set the font, I always use:
:set guifont=*
This brings up a dialog for me to select the font as I like it.
Then I can :echo getfontname() to see what that turns into as a Vim option value.
