- I cannot find anyway to set faces via lisp code, although the
- News file suggests that such an interface exists. Further, the
- News file suggests faces can be screen-local, what does that
- mean? I'm trying to find a solution to the problem that right now
- I set faces via X resources, but various packages like
- gnus-lucid and mode-motion conflict amongst themselves and my own
- view about what should be bold or highlight. One solution is for
- these packages to be modified with variables that I could
- override for their choice of bold when I want italic. Another is
- perhaps buffer or screen local (?) values for bold and italic,
- assuming a lisp interface for setting these.
-
- Comments, suggestions?
