How to use xft font in unicode-xft branch

2006-05-15 Thread Leon
Hi there, Just compiled unicode-xft and it works. I don't know how to use xft fonts. And it seems no document at all about the xft branch. For example, emacs -fn "mono" will give ,[ emacs -fn mono ] | Font `mono' is not defined ` Any idea how to test if emacs has xft support?? -- Leon
