In the folder there are only suitcases files (DISK:System Folder:Fonts)

I only have suitcases and it definitively search for 'POST'. I dont think that 
between my call FT_Open_Face() and the 'POST' lookup the file has changed.
I tracked with printf as my debugger does not work anymore, but I'm quite sure 
that it looks for POST in a suitcase, and then returns error 6 invalid argument 
because post_data is NULL.

Please David Turner, is there anything you could do or tell to help me ??

I made a wrap-up class for freetype on Win32,CygWin,Linux and MacOsX, and 
everything goes marvelously. (using libgd to display).
If I cannot do it on MacOs9 I will have many many problems... (because I will 
have to write much more code of course...)

Thanks
