How to get rid of the tool-kit mode-line in Emacs21?

How to get rid of the tool-kit mode-line in Emacs21?

[wgh]

Hi,

Ever since I downloaded Emacs21, I got those ugly scroll-bar,
tool-bar and mode-line in that fancy tool-kit. I found
out how to disable the tool-bar:

(tool-bar-mode -1)

in .emacs or simply M-x tool-bar-mode

I also found out how to disable the scroll-bar which requires you
to recompile Emacs21 with the --without-toolkit-scroll-bars option.
However I haven't figured out how to revert the mode-line back
to Emacs20 style.

Does anyone know how to just have Emacs21 look the way it did?

Thanks.

Try `M-x customize-face RET mode-line' and change the face to the way
you want it to look.

You can simply customize the face of the mode-line to remove the 3D 
box effect around the line...

M-x customize-face [RET] modeline
