[JW Lua] Finale crashes with finenv.UI():IsFontAvailable(...)

[Jari Williamsson]

Jan,

Thanks for the report. It's the length of the font name that causes the 
crash. The Window API allows 32 characters max for the font name, and I 
didn't do any length check in FCUI:IsFontAvailable(). I'll fix this.


Best regards,

Jari Williamsson
