No, it isn't good.  But yes, the somewhat derisory script is attached.  
Please note it is an extremely basic hack, but it might be of some use to 
someone desperate somewhere.  Possibly.  It will only run on linux to my

copy the script and your ttfont to a directory and run it.  Don't laugh too 
hard, unless you're prepared to improve it.
