Hi Detlev,

I don't have a specific answer re shell fonts, but on a general note, the 
'unregister timer' message happens for me if I subclass a Qt class, re-
implement an event and then forget to call the parent class's event method.  

I found it very easy to miss this error in the code when trying to find the 
cause as I was properly calling the superclass's init method, just not the 
event handling method.  (You can see my questions on the PyQt mailling list 
from 2nd&3rd May for a more in depth example re the FocusOut event of a 
QTextEdit - Hans-Peter Jansen provided the answer to me).

Could something similar be happening here?

HTH.

Cheers

Brad Ralph
