I will move them to the top. Small but important fixes in existing features: * Bring back the feature of showing the part of the buffer that is a problem for the use of the preferred coding systems. * Make compile.el record the markers that point to error loci on text properties in the error message lines. Important features: * Provide user-friendly ways to list all available font families, display a font as a sample, etc. * Program Enriched mode to read and save in RTF. [Is there actually a decent single definition of RTF?] * Implement something better than the current Refill mode. This probably needs some primitive support. * Implement primitive and higher-level functions to allow filling properly with variable-pitch faces. * Implement a smoother vertical scroll facility. * Implement other text formatting properties. ** Footnotes that can appear either in place or at the end of the page. ** text property that says "don't break line in middle of this". Don't break the line between two characters that have the same value of this property. ** Discretionary hyphens that are not visible when they are at end of line. * Make movemail work with IMAP. * Port Emacs to GTK+. (Relevant work has been done already.) * Make the Lucid menu widget display multilingual text. * Remove the limitation that window and frame widths and heights can be only full columns/lines. _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
