"texdoc comprehensive" does absolutely nothing here (well, other than
return me to the shell prompt).

I meant "as opposed to a font intended for some completely different
purpose"; i.e., basically something without .tfm files. Sorry for the
ambiguity.

mastered the intricacies of fontinst, virtual fonts, etc., basically we
need a package that simply installs and works :-)
