It's apparently being kept up to date:
https://github.com/wachikun/emacs_bgex
Unfortunately all the text surrounding it, and even the doc strings are
in Japanese, so reviewing the code is difficult.
I've Cc'd the author of bgex, because it would be nice to have
backgrounds in Emacs windows.
Tadashi -- would you be interested in integrating the code into Emacs?
If that's the case, translating it into English would be a useful first
step.
