Thnx very much for pointing this out!
Also: I have a suggestion to you and Hans for the next version of texfont:
Along with installing the pfb's and afm's into the texmf-fonts/fonts tree, it
would be useful to also install the user-defined encoding files into
/texmf-fonts/fonts/enc/dvips/<myfont-enc>/
whenever the --en switch calls for it. As it is now I have to install them
manually.
But thank you very much; I am indeed ""back in business"!
Best
Idris
