Hello,

I successfully installed 'xfstt' on a few of my Linux machines about a month
and a half ago.  Since most of these machines are dual boot Linux/Win95
machines, I symlinked the C:\WINDOWS\FONTS directory to /usr/ttfonts.  This
works fine.  However, yesterday, when I was using GIMP, I noticed that none
of the "...bats" fonts work.  Webbats, Dingbats 1, Dingbats2, etc...  They
all display a vertical rectangle.  Has anyone else been able to use TT
Dingbat type fonts in Linux or GIMP?

Thanks
