-	  anti-aliasing is possible within the
-	  <application>GNOME</application> desktop.  Just go to

-	    <guimenu>Applications</guimenu>

-	    <guimenuitem>Font</guimenuitem></menuchoice>, and select either

-	  <guibutton>Best contrast</guibutton>, or
-	  <guibutton>Subpixel smoothing (LCDs)</guibutton>.  For a
-	  GTK+ application that is not part of the
