I have several issues to report about problems in the NS build of Emacs
under GNUstep, and I'm not sure if I should report them as a single bug
or as one bug for each issue.
Brief summary of the issues
- Terrible font display. When the configured font is not found, it
defaults to some proportional font whose identity I'm not sure of,
exacerbated by the more serious issue that its display of proportional
fonts is abysmal.
- Toolbar problems. The toolbar has no background texture, and turning
off tool-bar-mode simply does not work properly (with results that
vary depending on if it's done interactively or in an init file, but
are terrible in both cases)
- Fringe overlaps scrollbar, along with some other scrollbar rendering
weirdness. (I think that when the whole document is shown, especially
given the fact that it _can_ be scrolled down, the scrollbar should
simply be full rather than "blank")
- No Meta key by default. The "Alt" key on my PC keyboard is interpreted
as "Command" by the GNUstep library, and so becomes Super. The
"Windows" key becomes Hyper, and is not configurable from within
Emacs.

Separate bugs, please.
Thanks.

Definitely as separate bugs. The more specific a bug report can be, the easier
it is for later reviewers to attempt reproduction or make comments. Large bug
reports require commensurately large efforts to comprehend and analyze them.
