I have read somewhere (have not tried it myself):
cp c:\windows\fonts\* /usr/X11R6/lib/fonts/windows (well, the idea of course)
cd /usr/X11/R6/lib/fonts/windows
ttmfdir -o fonts.scale
mkfontdir
Add "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/windows" to the FontPath section in
/etc/X11/XF86Config.
Restart X and the founts should have been available.

NT is the OS of the future. The main engine is the 16-bit Subsystem
(also called MS-DOS Subsystem). Above that, there is the windoze 95/98
16-bit Subsystem. Anyone can see that 16+16=32, so windoze NT is a
*real* 32-bit system.
