[JW Lua] "Select font" dialog as a feature request

Jari,

a feature request: could you please add an FCSelectFontDialog() class or 
an FCUI:DisplayFontDialog() method that opens up the standard Finale 
font selection dialog ? I.e. with font name from the list of installed 
fonts, size, typeface, baseline, tracking, superscript and the effect 
options. The dialog execution would then return an FCString() with all 
enigma tags set according to the selection.

Or as a quick workaround if the font dialog is not provided by the PDK:
could you provide a method that lists all installed fonts ? Currently 
FCUI:IsFontAvailable() makes it possible to check if a certain font is 
installed, but not to list which (unknown) fonts are installed.

Best regards,
Jan
