The Macintosh Resource Manager uses the following algorithm to find
resources (fonts, DAs, FKEYs, etc):
1) Look in the current application file. (So if you've
installed a font in the application, it is found first).
2) Look in the System file.
3) Look in open Suitcase files (if Suitcase is installed).
Suitcase files are searched starting with the one opened most recently,
and working back to the first one that was opened.
Automatically opened Suitcase files (named "DAs", "FKEYs", "Fonts", and
"Fonts/DAs") are opened in this order. You could also give these names
to folders, in which case Suitcase would open all the files within the
folders, and search those files within the folder in REVERSE
alphabetical order.
