Not gonna happen. Next editor (if any) will be Win32. Don't hold your
breath, tho. I've been struggling to get the fonts to work correctly.
Grrrrrr... Getting an editor up and running will be a *major* bit of work.

Clearly, I misunderstand the problem. "DOS font" implied to me graphics
mode, since it's the only time the editor tries to load a font. What am I
not understanding here?

I know, but if people want to use the GUI tool, thy probably will need to
write their own path tools as well, depending on how and where they store
the font.

It's trivial. I'll probably be able to steal the list from ED, since it's
got the current stuff. But all my time is being used on other stuff right
now...
