Wow. I just recompiled emacs to use the new WSLg system which allows windows to run Linux GUI apps using the wayland system. I got fed up with all the artifacts present in terminal mode caused by the emacs extensions causing bad redraws like LSP server that often made the buffer practically unreadable.
Wish I had compiled this sooner. It’s so snappy . The title bar is a bit of an eyesore and waste of pixels and there may be some issues with the clipboard, but it’s still a huge improvement.
I found the relevant configure flag in this blog post on emacs redux and just changed the configure command I used in my original Native Emacs build.
--with-pgtk
Do yourself a favor an treat yourself to the buttery smooth render of GUI mode today.
cygwin x-server is still far and above the more mature, stable, and better looking one.
