Hey, Arthaey, thanks!  I knew I could rely on the kindness of conlangers.
There's no point in making a point of offering NO information. ;P  It's even
more wasteful than an annoying TECH question.  There are way too many
technical problems I have to keep abreast of.  I can't make fonts, I can't
post my html files, my scanner has blown out, my sound card or my speakers
are dead.  So fontmaking is low on the list.  I may have other tech
questions, and I hope you won't waste one of your five posts telling me to
"get off my dumb ass and look them up myself."

I bought FontMaker years ago, and never loaded it on this machine.  I don't
think it was designed for XP; so it's probably unstable, yes?  But before I
do so, I've got to get a new scanner installed.  And a new program for
uploading to my site.  My SmartFTP seems to be suffering from delirium
tremens.  Maybe all I got was the trial version!  Oh well, memory...
