Re: xemacs-gtk now displaying unicode

Hi Stephen "Stephen J. Turnbull" <stephen(a)xemacs.org&gt; writes: Sure. I am not talking about doing something for others only. We'd do ourselves a favor. Lifting our toolkit into year 2k would be a win. Besides using all very appreciated sophisticated features, I would just as much like to be able to use XEmacs for simple stuff such as "open a text file and print it to my Laserjet in the attic in two-up format" -- while my wife watching me without ROTFL. It is ridiculous that it isn't possible to do this without jumping through hoops. For practical reasons, ordinary people will use entire desktop redirection, which is normally not as clever. Ever tried to redirect a subpixel rendered desktop from a BGR LCD to RGB? But as you also concluded, GTK will likely be able to satisfy Julian's and others' needs. So no worry. I believe you got me wrong here. What I meant was that you will most likely not be working on both machines (work and home) at the same time. So if there was anything that couldn't be achieved as elegantly as you may have wished for, it is likely that manually reloading a GTK resource file suitable for "home" will be a reasonable workaround. In that case the frame on "work" will be rendered with potentially less appropriate settings, but you won't see it anyway.
