I haven't tried it, but nice. I would like to see that in dwm as well.
Not as a patch that needs to be maintained, but rather as a part of
dwm. Are the old style X fonts really that much better?

WTF is this 'libdraw' thing? So are you guys not only duplicating
existing functionality implemented by p9p, but you are also
confusingly using the same names?
libdraw should be: http://man.cat-v.org/p9p/3/draw and that is what

My pleasure. I will take a look at the issue with the '-l' switch when I have
the time.
A rewrite of the highlight colour handling is probably in order, as it looks
rather messy atm (if anyone feels like taking a swing at it, go right ahead! :)
Eventually I would love to see the xft stuff

This may just be my limited perspective, or it may be my upset stomach

To be honest I'm not familiar with Xft - there are so many X font systems to
choose from! If the code is simple and there are no added *necessary*
dependencies, it *might* be useful. I don't know how many people would use
Xft, so perhaps a patch would be better, but I have been asked about it a

I'm sympathetic with this view, being a lover of typography myself. But
you're in luck! dmenu, dwm, and libdraw already do support variable-width
fonts. My desktop system runs dmenu in Helvetica. :)

You may want to have a look at the following from wmii:
Current font size support in swk is merely a hack, the plan is to use libdraw,
so it will eventually support it. Antialiased fonts are sometimes better for
reading.
I personally use 10x20 font or the fixed one. But certainly..reading the web
with courier is not as nice as with verdana..
