That looks like a solution, thanks.



Now I have a related question. When I run:
mtxrun --script fonts * >foo
The file foo has three columns. We only use the
word in the right hand column with the suffix
stripped off. So what is the purpose of the the
other two columns? for example:

minionproitalic minionproit MinionPro-It.otf

but we only use "MinionPro-It".

Just curious.
