  * Bring back the feature of showing the part of the buffer that is a problem
    for the use of the preferred coding systems.
  
  * Provide user-friendly ways to list all available font families,
    display a font as a sample, etc.
  
- * Have a command suggestion help system that recognizes patterns
-   of commands which could be replaced with a simpler common command.
-   It should not make more than one suggestion per 10 minutes.
- 
  * Program Enriched mode to read and save in RTF.  [Is there actually a
    decent single definition of RTF?]
  
  * Implement other text formatting properties.
  ** Footnotes that can appear either in place or at the end of the page.
  ** text property that says "don't break line in middle of this".

+ Small but important fixes in existing features:
+ 
  * Bring back the feature of showing the part of the buffer that is a problem
    for the use of the preferred coding systems.
  
+ * Make compile.el record the markers that point to error loci
+   on text properties in the error message lines.

  * Program Enriched mode to read and save in RTF.  [Is there actually a

+ * Implement something better than the current Refill mode.  This
+   probably needs some primitive support.
+ 
+ * Implement primitive and higher-level functions to allow filling
+   properly with variable-pitch faces.
+ 
+ * Implement a smoother vertical scroll facility.
+ 
  * Implement other text formatting properties.
  ** Footnotes that can appear either in place or at the end of the page.
  ** text property that says "don't break line in middle of this".

     same value of this property.
  ** Discretionary hyphens that are not visible when they are at end of line.
  
! * Implement something better than the current Refill mode.  This
!   probably needs some primitive support.
  
  * Implement a clean way to use different major modes for
    different parts of a buffer.

! * Make movemail work with IMAP.
! 
! * Port Emacs to GTK+.  (Relevant work has been done already.)
! 
! * Make the Lucid menu widget display multilingual text.
! 
! * Remove the limitation that window and frame widths and heights can
!   be only full columns/lines.
! 
! Other features we would like:

  * Give start-process the ability to direct standard-error
    output to a different filter.
  
- * Make compile.el record the markers that point to error loci
-   on text properties in the error message lines.
- 
  * Make desktop.el save the "frame configuration" of Emacs (in some
    useful sense).
  
- * Make movemail work with IMAP.
- 
- * Add ANSI C prototype forward declarations to the source files,
-   so that even the functions used within one file have prototypes.
- 
  * Replace finder.el with something that generates an Info file
    which gives the same information through a menu structure.  [Dave
    Love started on this.]

    thread has processed the menu_bar_activate_event and regenerated
    the whole menu bar.  In the mean time, it should process other messages.
  
- * Implement the design for Unicode-based internal encoding for Mule.
- 
  * Get some major packages installed: W3/url (development version needs
    significant work), PSGML, Mule-UCS, Tramp (?).  Check the
    assignments file for other packages which might go in and have been

  * Support simultaneous tty and X frames.
  
- * Implement primitive and higher-level functions to allow filling
-   properly with variable-pitch faces.
- 
  * Provide MIME support for Rmail using the Gnus MIME library.
  
  * Eliminate the storm of warnings concerning char/unsigned char

*** 112,135 ****
  * Improve the GC (generational, incremental).  (We may be able to use
    the Boehm collector.)
  
- * Port Emacs to GTK+.  (Relevant work has been done already.)
- 
- * Make the Lucid menu widget display multilingual text.
- 
  * Check what hooks would help Emacspeak -- see the defadvising in W3.
  
  * Implement some variety of (non-gtk) drag-and-drop support under X.
    Using libdnd might be a good start.
  
- * Remove the limitation that window and frame widths and heights can
-   be only full columns/lines.
- 
  * Add horizontal scroll bars.
  
  * Provide an optional feature which computes a scroll bar slider's
    size and its position from lines instead of characters.
- 
- * Implement a smoother vertical scroll facility.
  
  * Integrate Vroonhof's Custom themes code and make it do useful
    things.  [The integration is partly done.]
