I just thought that we should avoid x-, since there are many x- in use > in the w32 port. But maybe that was functions? I'll fix this. Regardless of how things currently are (we currently have a big mess in this respect), we should follow the following convention: - if it's a feature specific to X11, W32, NS, ... then use a name that starts with "x-", "w32-", "ns-", ... - if it's a feature that makes sense everywhere, then don't use such a prefix (even if it's only implemented for some of the backends).
