adisbladis c1861b6658 emacs: Switch to lucid as the default toolkit ... Because of long standing bugs and stability issues & an uncollaborative upstream there has been talk on the emacs-devel mailing list to switch the default toolkit to Lucid (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2022-08/msg00752.html). The GTK build also has issues with Xinput2, something that both we and upstream want to enable by default in Emacs 29. This situation has prompted me to use both Lucid an no-toolkit (pure X11) Emacs as a daily driver in recent weeks to evaluate what the advantages/drawbacks are and I have concluded that, at least for me, switching the toolkit to Lucid is strictly an upgrade. It has resulted in better stability (there are far fewer tiny UX issues that are hard to understand/identify) & a snappier UI. On top of that the closure size is reduced by ~10%. In the pure X11 build I noticed some unsharpness around fonts so this is not a good default choice. As with everything there is a cost, and that is uglier (I think most would agree but of course this is subjective) menu bars for those that use them and no GTK scroll bars. For anyone who still wants to use GTK they could of course still choose to do so via the new `emacs-gtk` attribute but I think this is a bad default. A note to Wayland users: This does not affect Wayland compatibility in any way since that will already need a PGTK build variant in the future.		2 years ago
