I can’t reproduce that. Using a minimal (that doesn’t rely upon other code), verifiable example, I get:

The font name is not saved in any MUSHclient structure, but in the Windows font object:

I can’t offhand see why CMiniWindow::FontInfo would not return the correct name, and in any case it does for me.

WindowFont no-ops ...


You can't say that WindowFont no-ops because your own posted example shows that the font is indeed set up. Your point seems to be that the wrong name is returned by WindowFontInfo.

I noticed that the wrong font was being drawn in a subsequent call to WindowText. This just seemed like a convenient way to communicate it. But if you can't reproduce it, I'll need to look further.

I'm also using Wine, and who knows what shenanigans go on behind the scenes there.

This might only be an issue in Wine when calling WindowFont during startup using Default charset instead of specifying ANSI. Luckily the OS default isn't that useful when loading a font.
