emacs gui

for myself

(custom-set-faces
 '(default ((t (:background "white"))) t)
 '(zmacs-region ((t (:foreground "white" :background "black"))) t))

(set-face-font 'default "-*-lucidatypewriter-medium-*-*-*-12-*-*-*-*-*-*-*")

I saw emacs20 at the university today (because emacs seems to be a link to 20 instead of 21), and my first impression was “wow, a bitmap like black & white GUI, how do I replicate that in (X)Emacs 21?”. the emacs20 GUI reminds me of lisp pr0n, aka simple, sharp, existing for ages, but like the wheel it's reinvented again and again, but with more colours and of course “better”.
