I have for my own personal amusement these directories in 
~/Library/texmf/fonts/

drwxr-xr-x  10 pete  pete  340 18 Feb 17:01 afm		AFM
drwxr-xr-x   3 pete  pete  102 30 Jan 14:23 enc		ENCs for fonts

drwxr-xr-x   3 pete  pete  102 23 Jan 13:35 truetype	well ...
drwxr-xr-x   7 pete  pete  238 18 Feb 17:01 type1		PFA&PFB
drwxr-xr-x  15 pete  pete  510 18 Feb 17:01 vf			VF

Most of these directories have sub-directories to distinguish between 
free and other fonts:

Library/texmf/fonts/type1:
drwxr-xr-x   3 pete  pete  102 18 Feb 17:01 adobe
drwxr-xr-x   5 pete  pete  170 30 Jan 14:34 bh
drwxr-xr-x   3 pete  pete  102 30 Jan 15:02 bitstream
drwxr-xr-x   3 pete  pete  102 30 Jan 14:52 monotype
drwxr-xr-x   5 pete  pete  170 10 Feb 01:19 public

To make use of the PostScript or TrueType fonts you need to write map 
file fragments like those in these files in 
Library/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/updmap:

-rw-r--r--  1 pete  pete   272 10 Feb 02:56 SIL.map
-rw-r--r--  1 pete  pete   347 10 Feb 12:00 bcy.map

These map file fragments are put together into the map file via 'sudo 
updmap --enable Map=mapfile'. Of some extra usefulness could be sty 
files to choose a specific set of fonts. Of course you can put these 
files into a similiar structure in texmf.local! But then don't forget 
'sudo texhash'!

One thing is important: only pdftex accepts TrueType fonts. But it 
seems it has become pretty picky about that ... (Not only because of 
that I am working on a scheme to convert TT fonts into PS, to more 
easily and more complete install them with fontinst!)
