      1 Allow Color font
      2 ================
      3 
      4 Description
      5 -----------
      6 By default dmenu will block using colour fonts because a bug in libXft [will
      7 cause dmenu to crash][bug]. However, if you build it against a [patched version
      8 of libXft][patch] it will work fine, but you need to remove the special
      9 condition in dmenu.
     10 
     11 This simple patch removes that check, so colour fonts work.
     12 
     13 Again, if you don't patch libXft then dmenu will *crash*.
