Thank you very much, this works... almost! The only remaining problem is
that for some reason I do not understand it does not include character at
position 0, in spite of the fact that \count10 starts at 0... Is this a
bug?
For example, if I do \includefont{cmr10} I have chars 1-127 included, if I
do \includefont{cmr10} and \char"00 somewhere else I have chars 0-127
included (as it should).
