i have installed the new version as requested, and brought the catalogue
repository into line; thanks for the update.

or browse the package directory at

(the catalogue entry will be updated overnight; the change will include
editorial correction ;-)

fonttable – Print font tables from a LaTeX document
This is a package version of nfssfont.tex (part of the LaTeX distribution); it enables you to print a table of the characters of a font and/or some text (for demonstration or testing purposes), from within a document. (Packages such as testfont and nfssfont.tex provide these facilities, but they run as interactive programs: the user is expected to type details of what is needed.)
Note that the package mftinc also has a \fonttable function; the documentation explains how avoid a clash with that package.
