IDE - posibility to use all fonts

[WizardOz]

Hi!

I tried to use some of my favorite fonts inside the IDE.
Some TrueType fonts are supported, but not all.

If you try some sugested IDE-programming-fonts from this site, you'll see that not all will work, even if they are TrueType.
The font I like the most using is Proggy, free downloadable from this site.
It looks like a TrueType, it talks like a TrueType, but installing it will give you this error in the IDE: "Only TrueTypeFonts are supported. This is not a TrueType font."...

So, to recap. A good font is really a must when the programming gets into the night. Allowing to use the font the eye likes, keeps bugs away!

Please look into the font-loading-thingy in your code and see if anything can be done!

You could always try loading it into something like Type Lite and saving it again. It may make it more compatible.

EDIT: Scratch that, I just tried it and it didn't work maybe some other prog may though.
