Well done, Nick!

This time I got this on Ubuntu 12.04:

$ make
cc `pkg-config --cflags --libs MagickWand` boxer.c -o boxer `pkg-config 
--libs MagickWand`
cc `pkg-config --cflags --libs MagickWand` libutf/rune.c libutf/utf.c 
lazytrain.c -o lazytrain `pkg-config --libs MagickWand`
cc `freetype-config --cflags` libutf/rune.c libutf/utf.c glyphsavailable.c 
-o glyphsavailable `freetype-config --libs`
cc libutf/rune.c libutf/utf.c breathingambigs.c -o breathingambigs

and I have four new files:
-rwxrwxr-x 1 donald donald 12739 Sep 23 21:14 boxer
-rwxrwxr-x 1 donald donald 12731 Sep 23 21:14 lazytrain
-rwxrwxr-x 1 donald donald 12215 Sep 23 21:14 glyphsavailable
-rwxrwxr-x 1 donald donald 13056 Sep 23 21:14 breathingambigs

Right, so now what do I do? You said last week to use commands such as:

./lazytrain textfile.txt DejaVu-Serif-Book 1.png 1.box 

which seems to work, but I guess that I need to run it for many fonts and 
then combine them all into a traineddata file? Are there guidelines on 
choice of fonts for a Latin-based alphabet, bold, italic etc? How many is 
enough? Is it still necessary to have a text file with multiple instances 
of each letter, which I have, but which will produce large box files? Some 
details on this sort of thing would be appreciated. Please say where, if it 
has been covered in the tesseract-ocr group before. I have searched but did 
not find what I want.

Regards
Donaldo
