Hello,

Currently, I am using emacs 22 and can only use a very limited number
of fonts. I am used to using Monaco which is a TTF fone and am
wondering if the next release of emacs (23) will support these fonts
by default using XFT or something like that.

Cheers,
Luca

You don't have to wait.
Just check out emacs from cvs and compile it using gtk toolkit.
I have been using emacs 23 on debian lenny with monaco font for some time.
just run fontconfig and add (set-default-font "monaco") your init file.
