Is anybody here really so short of diskspace that
cvs checkout -r sjt-xft xemacs
is not a full solution to that? If the answer is "no", then the real
question is "is it ready for the testers?"
Short of diskspace? No, not at all. I just don't know what I'm buying
into with sjt-xft. Can it be configured so that the differences between
it and the mainline do not manifest? I am not interested in playing
with fonts right now.
With the mainline I have a good grasp of what's going on. Help me
relieve my ignorance of sjt-xft!
(1) configure.ac is known buggy (I've cleaned up a few, but
Ben's
GNUmakefile bug is still open, and I suspect others remain).
That one looks easy to fix. If Malcolm doesn't get to it soon, I'll do
it.
