Apologies to all for time-wasting! I couldn't find the logfile so
decided to try launching NetSurf again to generate one, and this time
I left the hourglass to run. After a minute or so it started to check
the installed fonts, and having done so (after a further minute or so)
launched successfully. So, patience is required! Thanks for the help,
George
