The Gradle folk switched from a perfectly good email list to a shiny new, cloudy, cool kids, webby forum which has no capability of email (in a cloudy, webby, cool place who needs that ancient technology called email?). The Gradle developers have the approach "use the forum or do not get community support". So I stopped contributing to the Gradle community. If the GtkD forum is needed to initiate a thread so be it, but unless I get emails of the contributions to the created thread, the forum is worse than useless to me. Forums are fine if you are only interested in one or two communities, once you get beyond 10 forums are unworkable. At least for me. --=20 Russel. =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D= =3D=3D Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.winder ekiga.n= et 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: russel winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder

Basically it is a font browsing system, hence the title GFontBrowser.Will it let you zap fonts you have no use for without a long command line performance?
