Re: antialiasing for emacs

[Marcelo Toledo]

I just tested your patch and for the first one I think it worked pretty
well, but async reply is a problem.

I've took a few screenshots:

what I tested and failed:

toolbar, display, other fonts, tetris and simlar, gnus smileys, emacs
-q.

I was reading the source of Xft and I just dont understend why each
family of font has your own header and functions, all functions always
worked (including truetype) with the conventional headers, metrics and
functions. The scalable font model of X is above type-1, which is totaly
equal to truetype metrics. There is no sense xfree making this Xft.
