• Pretty Emacs font (instead of the built in)

Shorcut:

sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude install emacs-snapshot emacs-snapshot-el

echo "Emacs.font: Monospace-10" >> ~/.Xresources
xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources

Note, if you get the "No fonts match `Monospace-10'" message, make sure you are running the emacs-snapshot and not your previous emacs version.
