Encouraging... and is the IPA one of the selected scripts?
I just looked at the online docs, and it seems that Qt will only
access fonts through the window system --- I'm not sure how much of
the juicy accent placement info that might be in an OpenType font will
survive the trip through Xfree86 version 3.3. Version 4.1 is/will be
better, they say... I think I need a bigger /usr partition.
