ugh, got 1.1 to compile with the xft2 stuff and let me say that the fonts are HIDEOUS! the test in the main web pages i can deal with but the menus and the text in the To: fields and what not are way to huge. anyone know how to fix this? also it doesn't seem to detect my truetype fonts anymore even though i edited that file like in the wiki.

I built mozilla 1.2b manualt without too much problem for gtk+2,
including xft and fontconfig. I filed a bug with the configure switches
I used. No patching was necessary.
Haven't tried the spell yet.

Has anyone had luck with the mozilla spell + xft2/fontconfig? I've said
yes to the option, but compilation always fails. Hadn't had time to check
if a bug has been filed.

I've been running mozilla with Xft2/fontconfig for quite some time.
How to get it running depends on the mozilla version, for 1.1 you need
the patch included in the spell, for 1.2b you don't. You need to pass
--enable-xft to configure (the spell doesn't do that, don't know if i
forgot it when adding Xft2 support...). I haven't tested if it works with the
gtk2 patch.
