Oh, sorry. There is a typo. Three but not two Chinese fonts can be
displayed. Two of them are too large, and the third one is not bitmap font.

I suggest to buy some sort of laptop or netbook and ignore the internal

Perhaps the Dell Mini 12 is good (since fanless) but I don't know how it
fits into the other requirements.

You could add an option to print the window title to stdout. This way
if somebody wants to pipe it to an external program to show window
titles (like dzen on top of the dwm bar), they can.

X fonts are broken and not well supported, at least in Ubuntu. I have six

I do not care antialias or hinting if there are bitmap fonts, but they
are necessary when using some truetype fonts. I use dmenu to show how
fonts are broken.

Hi all,
I'm sure there is a severe risk of this piece being understood as
flamebait (this is not my intention).
However, I strongly believe that the major problem of dwm currently is
not font handling (8bit ascii bitmap fonts are perfectly fine thank
you); not the status bar (it's great);

This is a very selfish view. 8-bit character sets suck big way, even not
considering anything outside accented

Hi,
Why not make statusbar a (default) compile-time option, and add
possibility to export all statusbar information? This way user can
choose between builtin statusbar, or make his own. To make things more
simple, mouseclick support for statusbar should be removed.
As about cairo/pango, again,

Agree 100%. Folks, if you want unicode support, develop a sane,
working implementation.

Hi,
I never look at the windows titles. I only look at the tags in the
status bar. So for me, this font rendering problem is less important
than this problem : handling several monitors. I agree with Mate Nagy
about dwm handling correctly several monitors. My point of view is that
we should
Hi There!
3. A third idea for legacy support is, that I tend to add a
compile-time option or a specific Rule extension that let's you set to
reparent all clients or certain clients which are broken such as
Mathematica or various Swing apps, though I'm not absolutely sure how
likely that
