Goodness gracious!
Now, I finally got antialiased fonts to work in GNOME... I've been wondering for weeks why GTK+-2.0's antialiasing seemed broken.
I thought simply setting the GDK_USE_XFT variable to any value would turn on antialiasing. In a snobbish 'I know Lisp' fashion, I had done the following:
export GDK_USE_XFT=t
Turn out that doesn't work. You *must* use the number 1, as shown in all the examples:
export GDK_USE_XFT=1
*That* makes it work.
D'oh. So what's more broken? The behaviour of not accepting a non-1 value as true or my fashion of not wanting to retype the exact line from the instructions?

Does that apply to all applications or just the gtk2.0 ones?
