For now, it only needs to work on my Mac (MacVim or GVim...I custom-
compiled GVim just now in a futile effort to get it to detect my
custom $PATH when not invoked from the shell) and on my office Windows
box (GVim as well). I'm sure that Debian would not like this one bit,
so once this Macbook breaks down I'll have to further evolve my font
settings.
Thanks for all the help!
