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
