Would that not break emacs which still uses the old font system (along with whatever other apps still use old-style fonts: there are still many)? Really, there's no need to drop the old font system at all. Ever. What possible gain does this have, except a small amount of disk space? If it takes a lot of memory to run constantly then maybe a stub font server should be designed that simply hauls the real thing into memory when you first run an old-style app. thanks -mike
