StrikeFontSet installExternalFontFileName: 'arrowFont.out' encoding: UnicodeArrows leadingChar encodingName: #Arrow textStyleName: #DefaultMultiStyle.

and then inspect:

   Andreas' trick:

	ctx _ thisContext.
	[ctx == nil or:[ctx receiver isKindOf: FileStream]] whileFalse:[ctx _ ctx sender].
	ctx ifNotNil:[fileStream := ctx receiver]

   may be useful.

* ...
