there has been a recent port of Emacs to GTK"? Is this true? If so. is there
anywhere I can find out more about it?

Best, Darren

Oooohhh ... cool. Are there any details anywhere apart from CVS? Will this at
some point become the default *nix build?

Oh, no. GTK is standard on Linux, not in other Unices.

Solaris qualifies as Unix, last time I looked.

Perhaps not on DG/UX, but Sun and HP are including it these days, and
the only possible "#3" would be AIX...

I'm running Tru64 & AIX. GTK is add on freeware.

It was checked-in recently.  Just grab the latest versions of everything.

It's the head.  So you get to use the bleeding edge if you want to
try it :-)

Yes, see recent CVS snapshot. It can compile, but fail to run. But I would like
to see they add xft support in emacs (not via gtk2).

Since I am posting using it currently, I can't copy your statement
here (this is a RedHat-8.0 system).  It has all sort of GTK nonsense,
like detachable toolbars and file opening dialogues.  What is
annoying, though, is that the XIM stuff does not work: Emacs does not
grok deadkeys and compose keys with it, so I am currently reverting to
Leim for my "foreign" language writing.
