one gets what one asks for: a font with 40K scripts each with tens of 
thousands of languages ... so indeed a loop can take some time (and 
memory) ... even for lua that takes a while (say an hour for that font)

now a morning wasted for nothing so i just decide all is okay

so wiping the font from ones disk is the best one can do
