# To subscribers of the xforms list from "T.C. Zhao" <tc_zhao@yahoo.com> :
Yes, X11R6 enhanced xlfd to include general linear
transformations (haven't tried it either). I am still debating
if the rotated font in xforms should be done
for R6 only or using the newly available flimage
to rotate the bitmap so it works on all X releases.
Rotated font will be supported soon.
