Tidy up to ensure basic usability

 

Few touch-ups to restore buildability.

[Patch: setup.py For: font dependency checking]

Patch included in latest push. Have checked running of Aesthete from F15
live CD. Would it be possible to include a check for matplotlib in setup.py
too? Other than that, everything _should_ now work out of the box. Will give
it another test on the live CD from Launchpad to make sure it does before I
head to Vancouver, but if you could all give the latest push a whirl at some
point and make sure the basic essentials are not chronically broken, that'd
be appreciated.

By the by, the tree-structure clarification has now been added as a welcome
message to discourage users from trying to manually space their equations
before becoming familiar with the "What You Mean is What You See" (WYMiWYS?)
entry style. Please test the example.

Best,
