Most existing icons are bitmaps, only some have been created as SVG or
some other vector graphics format. Both types generally look different
and some systems can only display bitmapped icons, including Squeak.
Personally I prefer systems or applications with very few and very
simple symbolic icons, so that indeed a TrueType "Symbol" font could be
the primary source for icons. IIRC Squeak used already for some of the
window icons character glyphs, just not scaled.
