</tt><tt>Many government organizations that use Windows are going to LUA, </tt><tt><a href="http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc700846.aspx">http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc700846.aspx</a></tt><tt> Least-privileged User Account environments for most users. Having a normal user need to do anything as an administrator to run a program is almost a show-stopper for deployment in these environments.<br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> So, I wholeheartedly applaud anything that can be done to make GRASS run well under Windows without any administrative access.<br>

</tt><tt> ... but for be benefit of users without admin rights on the system it<br>
</tt><tt> should probably happen as part of the installer.<br>
</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> maybe for GRASS 7 we should first check for it in ~/.grass7/fontcap, and<br>
</tt><tt> if not found there look for it in $(ETC)/fontcap?<br>
