Okay, you will find screenshots in the beta-test binaries group.

What I did was to delete the values stored in both these keys. (I know
that isn't actually what you said to do. I'm sorry about that.) I then
started POV and everything was back to "normal" again. I saw a variety
of fonts listed when I tried to change the editor font, and I was
actually able to change editor fonts and sizes.

However, there is still a problem (or perhaps more than one), because
I found that I can recreate my earlier problem of disappearing fonts.

It seems that after I make "Terminal" my editor font, I can no longer
access any other fonts in the future. "Terminal" is aptly named. It is
the last font you will ever select.   :)

I'll post more info later, if I run across any other odd behaviour
with the editor font selection.

Thanks,
Glen
