One of the fonts in my system crashes my programs (Gimp, gfontsel)... I know what the programs call it ("tixusii"), but all the font file names are different. I suspect it's one of the files TT0001.ttf ... TT0132.ttf As you can see, removing files one by one to test would be quite a pain. Surely there's a way to extract font info from each file?
