In responce to my previous letter(s) about fonts, I got all sorts of
different replies,  mostly that people want them..  I got sereral responces
of people wanting greek for math stuff..  One person wanted some Russian
stuff.. (The greek I have, the Russian I do not)  Somebody interested in
hebrew (I have a hebrew on a different machine, but wont get it transfered
for quite awhile.)

Since I hope to get this package together and distributed soon, would
anybody that has any neat fonts, please send me a message so that if I 
dont have it I can try to get it before this all mess gets sent out..

I am currently trying to find out if this stuff will be archived on the
net, I really dont think it will since it is already in the 200K size
range and growing..  I also think that even if it is on the net, due
to its large size, it would probably be easier to get a disk in the mail.


Anyway, If you have any neat fonts PLEASE let me know about them ASAP..

Thanks

I have heard a rumor that there exists a 'Princeton Math' font that
has a lot of neat stuff for math people.. If this is true, could
somebody please explain it to me, and if someone has it and it is
in the public domain, could someone PLEASE mail a copy to me VERY ASAP
so that I can get it on this Fonts disk before I send it out..

BTW, for those that are patiently waiting, I have all of the stuff
currently promised except one, and I have found a few more that
I am trying to get, so this will be 'out real soon now..'

If there is anybody in ABSOLUTELY DESPERATE NEED of the greek font
for a thesis or something, please drop me a msg, and I will get it out
to you sooner, otherwise, it will be another week yet...

And to anounce Font Disk #2...  I have got enough different fonts that
people are currently working on and will have to me within a 'few' months
that I expect to have a 2nd FULL font disk by some time 1st quarter 85..
I expect this disk to contain a Hebrew font, some form of Japanese, some
Hindi (An Indian font i.e. Hindu) some beter music fonts than I currently
have... and other goodies... So if you are working on some fonts, dont
give up because you missed this time around, go ahead and try to have them
to me before Christmas, and then they will be distributed on the next disk..
