I have a copy of this font set, the name of it is CYRWIN.ZIP but I forgot where
I copied it from.  It's a nice set of fonts (bold italic, etc...).  The only
problem that I have with it is if you use Word 2.0(a) make sure that
SmartQuotes are off or the "eh" (as in entot - this, that) will return a TM
mark or other character.  But other than that it's great.
