The point is: they can't demand certain restrictions in the license,
even if you signed a contract (which most users even did not). But I'm
not a lawyer, and won't speak as if I knew better than I do...

Yeah! Is there a good reason why xffst is not started in /etc/rc.boot
(or something)?
BTW, can you help me in (finally) better understanding the True Type
files? There are
*.ttf
*.fon
*.ttr
*.for
files. (The last two are usually when some windows applications
install a custom font at startup, as many music programs do, with
musical symbols to print the scores, for example). What are all these
stuff?
Thanks a lot.
