how I can change default font to Monaco with antialiasing on Emacs 23. Where I can find dedicated binary for Emacs 23.1 for cocoa with antialised font settings?

A:
I grab my OS X Emacs binaries from http://atomized.org/wp-content/cocoa-emacs-nightly/.
You can find the settings for the default font in M-x customize
, then once inside the customize menu, you follow this path: -> Faces -> Basic Faces -> Default
.

If you have xcode installed you can build emacs your self nothing extra needed, which uses anti aliased monaco as the default font.

true, but that's how those nightlies are compiled. Who wants to spend time recompiling Emacs periodically when the nightlies are available for download?It's just clear that the asker of the question isn't clear on where he needs to go to change the fonts, and that is useful info to have.

A:
You can set the font faces via: M-x customize-faces
and type default
when prompted Customize face (...):
There's an option to Save for Future Sessions
which will write to your custom.el
file, so the face will be set next time you run Emacs.
There are two distributions which are popular
- Carbon Emacs (The Traditional)
- Aquamacs (The more Mac like)
Both are excellent binary distributions.
