But Customize doesn't do a thing for faces, its only real raison
d'etre for me personally, outside of ISO-8859. In fact, using it is
almost certain to give you a butt-ugly screen in Japanese under
XFree86 as distributed by Debian, Turbolinux, and Red Hat, and
probably all the other Linux distros, because the ideographic bitmap
fonts get mixed into lib/X11/fonts/misc, which is scaled by default.
(This is assuming the user is competent to work around Custom's
complete lack of support by setting font sizes for non-ISO-8859 fonts
by hand.)
Questions:
1. Does customize "work" with mule now if you just set colors but
not family/size etc?
2. Is the ignorance of customize wrt to the Mule font lists when
setting the size and/or family the only problem.
If the answer to both these questions is yes, then there is at least
hope it can be fixed. The problem with 2 is that there currently is
no make-face-size which works using frob face property. (There only is
make-face-larger). Such a function is needed anyway, but it is not
exactly trivial to write.
