Hi there,

There are some interesting discussions in XftGnuEmacs in
emacswiki.org. Hope the developers can consider this.

----
 Sept. 23, 2006: Is there an Xresource that is equivalent to the
 command-line option ‘--enable-font-backend’ so that I don’t have to
 type this every time I start Emacs?

- Doesn’t seem to be. But it’s a trivial patch to src/emacs.c to flip
  the command line arg to on-by-default, just reverse the sense of the
  variable. I’m not entirely clear why one would compile in Xft
  support and not use it at this stage (and on my system at least, the
  unicode-2 branch doesn’t even display particularly sensibly unless
  you turn it on…), so IMHO it would be nice (tm) if it was on by
  default upstream.
