The antialised fonts only affect the window manager. Enlightenment
uses freetype - a GPL'd truetype font library - to render its text in
window captions, dialogs etc.
This font support does not extend beyond the windowmanager,
applications are responsible for rendering their own fonts, the wm has
no impact on the contents of the windows it manages.
