This will give you the Fonts system folder on just about any Windows machine:
[symbol %SYSTEMROOT%/Fonts( | [folder_list]
On GNU/Linux and Mac OS X, its trickier because there are many possible font paths. You can find fonts here on Mac OS X:
/System/Library/Fonts /Library/Fonts
For X11, you can find them here: /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts

Ok, I guess this is worth a try,
So where are fonts located on most linux/OSX/windows/etc machines?
Anyone implimented a font searchpath thing as a PD patch?

I think it would be worth a little research to see how hard it would be to use the system path. I guess the tricky part would be know which platform you are on. Perhaps its time for a [uname] object.
do you mean [operating_system] in guess-where?
Why, look at that.... that's it exactly.
