[Fontconfig] What they look like

Using font-config and other Linux utilities, I've put together some scripts
which trawl a list of directories, produce a 'sample' and full character map,
of each font.
  Makes use of xsl-fo to produce a PDF output.
Currently works with .ttf and .otf files.
Yet to figure out how to get the information from .pfa .pfb files.

Still alpha, feedback welcome.
I basically wanted to look at fonts prior to selecting one,
or to check if a font had a certain glyph.
