John: we will likely need a folder to put font files with the improved GUI.
We need to use braille fonts without having them installed on the system,
and we can also have additional ASCII fonts that would help readability of
the Daisy window. Therefore I propose that we we can keep the ttf files in
programData/fonts.
Thanks.

François
