26 are always compiled in, which includes most 8-bit character sets).
27 These codeset tables are currently only used for driving X11 core
28 fonts, they are not required for Xft fonts. Compiling them in will
29 make your binary bigger (together about 700kB), but it doesn't
30 increase memory usage unless you use an X11 font requiring one of
31 these encodings.
