Re: Kanji font selection (Mule showstopper?)

X resources are not the point; you and I can work with them or around them. The issue is that on my system, at least, any attempt to alter _any_ faces, font or size of any charset, via the Options menu results in completely unusable kanji fonts. These cannot be changed _at all_ outside of Lisp AFAIK, short of restarting XEmacs. That is not acceptable to ordinary users, and thus a showstopper IMO. Don't release a Mule XEmacs in this state, please. Also, the fact that the initialization code produces completely different results from the normal operation code bothers me; I'm not sufficiently well-informed to know whether it's something that must (or even can) be fixed or not. But I don't like it. -- University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences Tel/fax: +1 (298) 53-5091
