I noticed that on Aminet in the archive "FontDT-1.3.lha" are included the sources, if someone is interested could bring on AROS the FontDataType.

That sounds very interesting. I wonder what a Font Datatype is used for ?

For example it can be useful to preview from Wanderer the various fonts and info via Multiviev, I attach an example on AfA One, the datatypes is the same.

Hmmm. Seems very interesting.

In my spare time lately I have been planning to work on updating MultiView but I haven't started yet. I'll add this to my todo list.  :)
