hyperreal<p>This is Emacs on WSL2. Does anyone know if there is a way to get rid of this ugly-ass window border? Or at least make it dark? It doesn't seem to use any X11, GTK, or QT styling. I followed this documentation to no avail. It would also be nice if this Emacs window used Windows 11 native windowing instead of whatever this is, if possible. <a href="https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/gui-apps" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">learn.microsoft.com/en-us/wind</span><span class="invisible">ows/wsl/tutorials/gui-apps</span></a></p><p><a href="https://fedi.hyperreal.coffee/tags/Emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Emacs</span></a> <a href="https://fedi.hyperreal.coffee/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://fedi.hyperreal.coffee/tags/Windows11" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Windows11</span></a> <a href="https://fedi.hyperreal.coffee/tags/wsl2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wsl2</span></a></p>
