This was handled off-line. Pim noticed that on Windows 95 K95 links
are stored as PIF files. And on NT, they are stored as LNK files.
PIF files are considered to be executables by Windows 95 while LNK files
are not considered to be executables by NT. Therefore, the inability to
make the association. On the other hand though, NT will remember the
fonts you assign to a given session if you ask it to. So the problem
is not really a problem.
