Phew, that's a relief.

I got the C and the C++ package of DJGP, so I'm still assuming this is 
alright.  As for the fonts distribution, well, I'll check the copying.mit file 
again.  I seem paranoid, but this is only for my own protection.

No, this program is FREEWARE (as long as I'm still in school)!!!!

Thanks for all the help!
Bye!
