You can actually do this, although it's not very intuitive. I would expect to be able to go to the font directory and select all of the fonts listed. However, that's not how it works.
This is from memory, so bear with me if a couple of steps aren't quite right... In order to select a directory, go to the directory one *higher* than the font directory and then select the directory containing the fonts. Make sure the directory name is in the filename box, not the instructions that are there by default. Click OK and you'll see the directory listed in the list box in MCC. You'll then have to cancel the file dialog to get rid of it. You can then press "install selected" and get all of your fonts at once... IMNSHO, this is a rather convoluted way of installing fonts compared to most other OS's or applications, but at least it's possible to add fonts to the system, unlike RedHat which doesn't provide a GUI to do so that I can see.

He tried to add fonts with the Mandrake Control Center. He hadn't a windows installed on this system but a windowsshare mounted with a lot of fonts. Since the fonts wasn't found automatically he tried to add them manually. This wasn't that easy since the dialog for that didn't accept more than one font at a time so he clicked hundred of times trough his fonts. Wouldn't it be better to be able to select a whole directory or a bunch of files at one time ? Thanks a lot of reading this Greets Steffen
