[X4U] Re:Installing AppleWorks in Tiger

[Kunga]

That may not have been necessary. There is a utility that deletes all  
foreign fonts. But I can't find it now and am wondering if anyone  
here know what I mean? I've used it and been googling and searching  
versiontracker and it just won't pop up. Must be part of something  
else. I have used it and it freed up almost a GB of space. And that  
was with me always NOT installing foreign fonts. But now I can't find  
it. It was free and easy to use.
