[Ed Cashin writes]
: Icon graphics are so easy that it would be fun to write presentations in
: Icon itself, or to write an Icon program that would read a "presentation
: description file" and generate an executable for a presentation.
A very cool application idea! I've toyed with it, but OpenOffice works
well enough that I just haven't needed to do anything serious with it.
[He then asks about selection of available MS Windows fonts in Icon]
The WinFontDialog() function in Windows Icon and Unicon let's your user
view or select from available fonts with the standard Windows font dialog.
If you mean for your program to get a list of available fonts, I am not
aware of a direct way to do this under the Win32 API, perhaps someone
with Windows expertise can suggest a solution or a cheesey workaround.
