Is there a simple command I can issue with texfont to install an entire  
font family?  Am hoping for something like the fontinst latinfamily  
command.

I have a new collection of 30 fonts, which includes a variety of  
weights, and SC and OsF.  There are no expert fonts per se, so I  
believe the texnansi encoding should work best.  I'm unclear on how  
texfont knows what font font is what though.  Do I need to rename the  
files, and if so, how?

I tried the following, but it didn't work:

bdarcus% texfont --install --vendor=linotype --collection=lsyntax  
--so="/Users/bdarcus/fontinst/LTSyntax Folder.1" --makepath  
--fontroot=/Users/bdarcus/Library/texmf LS*
