As suggested before, use type specs, or ^T.  Then type the first letter of the
font name that you wish to use.  The names will cycle thru all posible entries.

Example.  If you want to select copperplate, type  ^T, then C, until
Copperplate appears.  You may cycle thru several C named fonts to get to it.

This is the fastest way to get fonts, after the font list gets too long.
My system has 200+ fonts and the font selection list is almost useless
for anything over A.
