The question is, will GS/OS use a TT font for its system font?  I remember
asking somebody about this on IRC #AppleIIgs and they said they weren't sure,
but I should stick to bit mapped fonts (regular GS fonts).  You could go
ahead and try to make the system font a TT font - not sure what will
happen.  And I can't remember how to change the system font.
