At least some of them will... :-) The anti-aliased fonts are part of a reworking of font handling on the unicode branch, which will become the new trunk once 22 is released. The image-background stuff is my own patch, which I think may be mergeable in the future (while arguably it's just bling, I don't think it's all that intrusive). [Other stuff like lexbind, who knows...] [After using it for a while, I find I really like the aa font support ... text looks so _pretty_ now (and Emacs is, after all, all about text!).] -Miles -- Come now, if we were really planning to harm you, would we be waiting here, beside the path, in the very darkest part of the forest?
