    *  Fonts can be a pain in the ***
    *  You can call them by name, but than you have to be very precise
    *  by writing their name in the script
    *
    */

  /*  an easier way is to call them by number
   *  but there you will face problems when you activate or deacitvate fonts
   *  because their numbers will change
   *  
   *  This script writes a list of all available fonts
   *  on your system to the desktop
   *  have a look into new file
   *  the weight is separated by a TAB
   *  if you want to call a font by the name
   *  you have to write that TAB.
   *  some IDEs translate TAB into for whitespaces
   *  so be carful
