	That's the first time I've even come across ditto in that context.  If 
instead one wanted to add it to texmf.local, would the correct command 
be the following?

	sudo ditto ~/Desktop/fourier-GUT/ /usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/

Also, does this work for other packages on CTAN?  Under what 
circumstances?  Seems this approach might address some of the earlier 
discussion on this list about package management.

	That said, I still think it would be most helpful to have Fourier 
incorporated into either an i-Package or the main gwTeX installation.  
I'll remind Gerben in about a month, as he requested.  ;)
