basically it's like this:
put the fontNames into theCompare
answer file ""
if it = "" then
beep
exit to top
end if
put it into thePath
revFontLoad thePath
if the fontNames <> theCompare then
answer "success!"
revFontUnload thePath
--not unloading before quitting your app can lead to crashes
--depending on the version of LC/Rev you use
else
answer ":("
end if
now some fonts don't work, depending on the type of fontfile. if your font
doesn't work, try to use a font format convertor to convert to a different type
of font.
