As I wrote before, I'm now working on the new implementation of automatic-character-composition that doesn't use text property. The work is not for a new feature, but I realized that an element in composition-function-table must be changed slightly, and a few new Lisp functions must be added (in a broad sense, it's a new feature). Please let me check-in the necessary changes for that work even after the feature freeze. --- Kenichi Handa handa@ni.aist.go.jp
