Thanks, but I know that already.  I could also do: "/home/user/My 
Fonts/ttfonts" in the quotation marks and probably get it to work also, 
but those users who are not shell users will not know that. I am a CLI 
user and I fixed it by modifying the directory names. <begin_rant> But I 
just think it could probably be easily fixed so that it could be 'point 
and click'.  I think that is the point of Drakfont in the first place. 
 We are trying to move this config stuff out of the CLI and into the GUI 
right? </end_rant>
