Mosaic is using the shipped default fonts. Currently, it wants, um...
44 distinct fonts. Finding 44 fonts which look good across 6
platforms (although I'm willing to punt the RT and even the vax, some)
is Nigh Impossible. I'll see what I can do about finding a set that
looks decent on sun, decmips, and rsaix machines, though...

P.S. I still don't understand why the sun isn't scaling the font; I
thought it would. I guess I should look into that, too.
