I have suggested [rc] (roman caps) and [cs] (caps sans) to complement rm and ss. I see no reason why it couldn't go further. Things like [hw] might need some foundational/fallback definitions, though. Need to look further. >> It ends up being memory-hungry, and probably a bit slower than other >> options, but it kinda works. > >I like high level solutions, so I need always >lots of memory... ;-) Yeah.

I installed loads of fonts, but have nothing in the way of typescripts. I also liked Florencesans and your insight of putting reverse-italics (yuck) in the slanted slot. And this is *after* I spent the weekend compulsively texfonting every default Mac font I could find on my machine. Did anyone get Scriptina to install? The pltotf step in texfont still hangs.
