I guess we could have a font control panel at some point, but there isn't that much to manage anyway. As long as the font files are somewhere on the font path everything should just work.
Right. We'll need to add support for using libfontconfig soon - that'll mean we don't have to set up a font path manually.
Yes! libfontconfig support in Wine will be wonderful, it'll mean that any fonts the user adds in the "control panel" in Linux will automatically be available in Wine, and possibly vice-versa (!).
This tool could also be used to just see the installed fonts and check if they work. Maybe like that the error messages of not finding fonts go down as you can check first if the font is really there and working or not.
