ok, I will check all the inline functions. Make ones not necessary
out of line.

I think the gtk+ render system(i.e. pango) is a rather high level
render system and they work efficient only on long text, such as a
paragraph. I have try it, but the speed is not satisfying. I think
the reason is that when you feed text to "pango", the "pango" will
do all things about ajusting "visual order" etc. What we need is a
rather low level redner system. So I choose xft. I think most of xft
code can be used in xforms frontend after revising, can't it?
