[Mac-emacs-devel] jisx0201 display and x_list_fonts cache patch

[YAMAMOTO M. <mit...@ma...>]

The attached patch remedies some problems somewhat related to Japanese
characters and input methods:

  1. displaying jisx0201 roman/kana characters
     Basically this part is imported from mac/src/macterm.c in Emacs
     21.2.  I confirmed that this patch works both with the Osaka font
     (a built-in Japanese font in MacOS) and with converted ETL fonts.

  2. caching font lists in x_list_fonts
     SKK, one of widely-used Japanese input methods in Emacs,
     frequently changes the cursor color to reflect the current input
     mode.  But Emacs in the current CVS invalidates the face cache
     whenever the cursor color is changed (``++face_change_count;'' in
     xfaces.c), and it causes lots of regexp matches in
     mac_font_pattern_match.  With caching font lists in x_list_fonts,
     which is already done in xterm.c, the reconstruction of the face
     cache can be done without ``the spinning rainbow''.
