- OK, here's my question. I have about 130 or so TrueType fonts installed on
- my Mac SE. When I want to use on of those fonts that is at the bottom of the
- listing is takes an annoying amount of time to get there. What I was wondering
- is whether or not an INIT exists that will display the font menu in all
- applications as a hierarchal menu with 26 choices (1 for each letter of the
- alphabet?) Then under each letter would be all the fonts that started with
- that particular letter. It seems to me that this would be possible because
- I'm pretty sure that Adobe Type Reunion modifies the font menu to be hierarchal
- but of a different form than I desire. If someone knows of an INIT that does
- this, please e-mail me or if you are interested in writing one and my
- description is somewhat vague, please let me know.
