    The Truetype Browsers are a series of stacks I started working on
last year but it's on the back burner for now.  Each stack is a catalog
of 50 or so Truetype fonts.  It is available in both HCGS and
HyperStudio format.  You can flip through the stack and look for a font
you like.  This saves the trouble of downloading a bunch of fonts that
"sound" like the one you're after, then finding out none of them are
what you expected.

    I have about 300 Truetypes online here, so there's potential for six
volumes of stacks.  If anyone's interested, I can put the rest of my
fonts into stacks.  No, you don't need Pointless to use the stacks. 
Each font image is stored as a card graphic.  I'll bet Frank Lin would
like me to catalog all my fonts.... ;-)

    Enya is a Truetype font.  It is the handwriting used on Enya's
"Watermark" album.
