Re: [Devel] Passing style

I'm glad you prefer keeping both, actually. 8^)

BTW, I finished a patch for Pango 1.2.5 yesterday to use these changes,
but it showed me that I'm also going to have to patch GTK/gdk and maybe
some other things before I can actually see different fonts used on
my system (Linux/Gnome).  I can pass it along if you're interested,
although I realize you may not have an interest in pango changes.  Let
me know.
