In knew that, but not that about Win64. Maybe I'll install one on  
Virtualbox.

I see. I have $PLPLOT_LIB set to "C:\foo", but this works. Not sure,  
why your case doesn't work, since I believe before something is opened  
the slashes in filenames are converted to backslashes (for WIN32), so  
you should have "C:\foo\\plxtnd5.fnt" then, which should still work,  
or? But anyway, that was a bug which is fixed in svn. I'll check other  
occurences of #ifdef MSDOS.

Thanks,
Werner
