Zipguy 2013-09-03 - You can find out my email address by clicking on Zipguy. Thanks rle, it looks very interesting. I do like the way it does a full screen height list when you hit the "Choose a font" button. It looks like this on my laptop (which is running tcl on Windows 7):

I added the screenshot and added a new page called Font Choosers, which references this page, to organize them a liitle bit.
