I have understand this, but I am still looking for docus to the 'fonthandler'-commands, becaus I don't understand how this mechanism works.
The reason, why I am interesting in fonthandlers, was: To correct the lowerleftdoubleninequote-problem with cmr. To be honest, I am asking myself why this is not working out of the box, because cmr is TeX's standardfont.
in that case: grep the base path for guillemots since these are implemented by means of fonthandlers in the aer fonts; with regards to quotes, it may make sense to switch from cmr to aer; also, there is the latin modern coming, which will bring you all the quotes and chars you need [the latin modern family is officially launched at the next dante meeting]
