title: Why doesn't the font setting work in gvim?
body: <p>In Fedora15, I was originally using <strong>vim</strong>, with all my settings defined in my <code>~/.vimrc</code> file. I recently installed vim-X11, and have now transitioned to <strong>gvim</strong>. I defined a <code>~/.gvimrc</code> file, with the following line to set the font:</p>
  
  <pre><code>set guifont=Bitstream_Vera_Sans_Mono:h11:cANSI
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>However, it doesn't work. There are two strange things:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>The other settings such as line number, color scheme works right, but font setting doesn't work. Instead, I need to set them in the tool bar every time to change the font: "Edit->Select Font".</p></li>
  <li><p>Every time I select "Edit -> Startup Settings", it opens the <code>~/.vimrc</code> file instead of the <code>~/.gvimrc</code> file.</p></li>
  </ol>
