- Converting TrueType fonts to Amiga bitmap fonts makes the whole point
- of TrueType invalid, so if that's what you're doing, it's worthless.

- On the other hand, if you made a "bullet" rasterizer library that can
- make TrueType fonts work on Amiga, like bullet.library makes CG fonts
- work, or type1.library makes PS Type1 work, then I'll register your
- program immediately upon a shareware release. SW, because I want to
- see it works first..
