Actually, for a while I have been looking for a way to get proportional
fonts in monospacing, albeit for a special applcation.  I just want to print
out the lyrics to some music with the guitar chords over the appropriate
words.  However, if I use any font besides the very ugly non-proportional
one I have (Courier, what else?), the chords are proportionally spaced and
are useless for a guitar player.  So I could see other possible uses for
having *nice* or even *somewhat exotic* fonts still monospaced.  

In fact, if you ever get anything working, Woody, could I get a copy? Thanks!

I agree.  Although I also think you could work at not coming off sounding so
arrogant at times, Woody.
