It doesn't work on Macs either, actually. :) I think I've found the fix 
though, could you test it please?

In the Font Chooser stack script there is a "refresh" handler. Comment 
out the line I've indicated:

on refresh
   -- exit refresh
   if the mode of me is 0
   then exit refresh
   if the selobj is empty then
     if the number of this card is not 2 then go to card 2
     exit refresh
   end if
   -- if the long id of the selobj is curobj then exit refresh -- 
COMMENT THIS
   <...etc...>

I think that should do it. You won't need to add "refresh" after the 
mouseup handler as I suggested before. Does this work for you?
