I'm well aware that many people have different tastes about font readability and that I'm probably out of the majority (who wants "like on Windows" rendering). This awareness was actually the reason of my post: to have guys remember that not everyone welcomes the bci. I don't mind defaults, I just need a flag to switch it off for me (with no recompilation). I don't want to find myself in the position of cursing the _expiration_ of a lame software patent. 8-) -- Roberto Ragusa mail at robertoragusa.it -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
