Actually, what it is for is saving time in uploading files that use lots of non-standard fonts, by letting you cache them in your UNIX directory. I assume this is what the person meant, and here is the problem: There are two parts to the program, a UNIX side and a Mac side. The file you listed above is only the UNIX side. The Mac side has, apparently, dropped out of the archive again. *sigh* If you want the Mac side, contact me directly. -Jim -- Jim Elliott----------------------------------------elliott@cs.wisc.edu "There is perhaps no phenomenon which contains so much destructive feeling as moral indignation, which permits envy or hate to be acted out under the guise of virtue." -- Erich Fromm
