Hacked (almost literally) my way through truetype fonts and the mess that is the windows registry, and have code that dynamically updates fonts and registry entries at runtime. Go me.

Bloody hell, that must have been hard going. I wouldn't want to touch the Windows registry with someone else's barge pole.

editing and updating the registry is the easy part

deleting safely from it ( even when entries no longer needed)
is a bit harder

Thats what I'm doing, or trying to... found some unforseen troubles; basically trying to install a font of the same name as an existing one over the old one.
Joy.
