Description: Install Adobe Type 1 fonts into X11 and Ghostscript
type1inst is a small perl script which generates the "fonts.scale"
file required by an X11 server to use any Type 1 PostScript fonts
which exist in a particular directory. It gathers this informatiom
from the font files themselves, a task which previously was done by
hand. The script is also capable of generating the similar "Fontmap"
file used by ghostscript. It can also generate sample sheets for the
fonts.
