As a user of this fork: 1. It would be very nice to have this in core StumpWM 2. This brings some dependencies into StumpWM (right now StumpWM has just one external dependency: CL-PPCRE). 3. Text drawing is slower with this fork, especially when some character is drawn after it is purged from cache as too old. As far as I understand this doesn't affect fixed fonts, but it is something to document… _______________________________________________ Stumpwm-devel mailing list Stumpwm-devel@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/stumpwm-devel
