Knowledgeable Emacs folks in this thread: Does anyone know the status of Wayland-native Emacs? It's my last X/XWayland application, and it looks terrible on high-DPI displays.
- rurban 5y agoUsing it on fedora and ubuntu fine with the pgtk branch for several months, and this is stable IMHO. global line number mode wasn't stable, and resizing fails to repaint the new parts. killing openened processes (ediff-buffers) can still crash emacs. 29.0.50 is better though. The latest pgtk cleanups just came in the last days from Po Lu. as of today's master on ubuntu latest: Ran 6194 tests, 6064 results as expected, 11 unexpected, 119 skipped 7 files contained unexpected results: src/fns-tests.log src/casefiddle-tests.log lisp/time-stamp-tests.log lisp/subr-tests.log lisp/help-fns-tests.log lisp/eshell/esh-var-tests.log lisp/bookmark-tests.log
- NeutralForest 5y agoThe pure GTK branch has been merged into master and I use right now with KDE (and Wayland). I had to adjust the font size but other than that, I didn't meet any issue.
- gspr 5y agoThat's amazing news! Does that mean one can expect this feature in Emacs 29? Edit: I just noticed that LWN has a news entry that explains just this – https://lwn.net/Articles/890405/ https://lwn.net/Articles/890405/ (short answer: yes).
- NeutralForest 5y agoJust like you said indeed!
- JanisErdmanis 5y agoThis was the main reason I built emacs 28 from source on Ubuntu about 3 months ago. Sadly Ubuntu 22.04 still sticks with emacs 27.1 :(
