Good point. :)

I think that that's a good idea. I have sent a few messages to Aaron
Ardiri about this asking if it was in the queue for development and
never received a response back (couldn't find a pilrc mailing list).

I understand what the stipulated goals are. Turning this into a quick
hack isn't the best way to do it, even though it's the average OS5
user who'll have to suffer for now without their tiny fonts :)

I will certainly work to get this done the right way though.
