- Short: Disk Cache of available fonts, faster reqs

- This is a patch to the 39.3 (3.1) version of the diskfont.library. It adds a
- disk caching mechanism to the library which keeps the list of available
- fonts. If you have a huge number of fonts (I have approx. 300!), the creation
- of the (first, usually uncached) font requester gets much faster: Reading the
- cache takes usually not more than two seconds, parsing the directory tree
- however used to take half a minute on my system.

- New in 1.01:
-
- - Fixed a tiny problem with fonts appearing twice in the output list.
-
- - Font cache is now much smaller (approx. one sixth!)
