Note to Max: We have discussed the idea of fontsets in one of the branches. That's a nice idea, but I do not think that we have to do it before merging the branch. > That would mean a complete rewrite of everything... > If something more high level is needed, it could build on the feature > branch, not replace it. To Pedro: No, it would not mean a complete rewrite of everything. You can simply pre-process the variable value to expand into lower-level format. Then, pass it to the existing functions. No rewrite needed. Just some extra function to be written: not now; later. > ...

I think that it is very important to lower the entry barrier for latex configuration. That's why I am pushing to simplify the font-config values. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode maintainer, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
