I have discovered an undocumented featured in Windoze 3.1J.  It
may also exist in Windoze 3.0 but I have not verified this.

If you have placed windoze in a directory with a name such as 

windoze.31j

the TrueType installer fails after unpacking and joining the font
files.

I have not taken the trouble to find out whether the problem is
caused by using a directory name with a suffix (absolutely kosher
in terms of the FAT file system) or because the installation
directory is not

windows

plain and simple.  It might also occur if the directory was

windoze

or something appropriate like

msdosis.crp

but I have not tested this.

I'm just a (not very) humble teacher of Japanese, so I cannot
possibly understand the workings of high paid programmers
employed by mutli-billion dollar corporations, so it is with all
due humility that I say this "feature" strikes me as bloody, piss
poor programming!

That goes double and triple for the diagnostic that one gets when
this feature is activated -- a useless instruction to contact
technical support.  The last time I called IBM Japan, I had to
deal with a bloke who did not know the different between EMS and
XMS memory....
