    I was really happy to find Stuart Ashley's tmd routines, but it would
help me organize my program better if I knew how much memory to set aside
when I create these things.  Could someone maybe provide the number of
bytes per polygon type that I should set aside when making these things?
    Also, is there some way, once I've created the tmd in memory, to send
the data to the PC so that it can be saved as a regular tmd file and I
could just load it in the next time, rather than creating it dynamically
each time?  I've considered just printf-ing the appropriate section of
memory and cutting and pasting the output - is there a more efficient way?
    On another note, could anyone tell me where I might be able to
download some other fonts to use on the Yaroze?
    Thanks!
