| Last question(s): Where do I get docs on the format for fonts for DR14
| and for DR14 themes. I have literally thousands of fonts that it would
| be easy enough for me to screen cap or make in GIMP, photoshop or
| whatever (yeah, I'm still learning GIMP, so is still use PS) and apply
| color/shading, etc to for use with E, I just gotta know what to do with
| 'em.

Download Fnlib (I believe it's on the ftp.labs.redhat.com site).  In it there's
a little description of what you should do generally.  If you install it, I
think you'll find that the information will be with the fonts themselves
(/usr/local/Fnlib_fonts)... just use "less" or a text editor to read the config
files.

Raster has a split-up font set.  You needn't do that since it's a lot of
work--keep the font as a single piece and tell Fnlib the startpoint and size of
the box of the character within the graphic.  I'll get around to having this
automated for monotype (same-sized) character sets sometime soon if I have time.
