Do you have the original c source for running that image I wonder?

Hi, Wofgang -
I'm a bit confused by your message. The fonts are *in* the image, so they
are definitely not lost forever. And what do you mean by the *.st files? I
am guessing that you are getting the source code to run on the Squeak VM,
and that you want .st files that would create the fonts in Squeak. Is that
right?
I have that image running in Squeak (see attached image), but I see no
fileOut code for StrikeFont. I suppose we could copy over the fileOut code
from Squeak, get it to run in my St80, and fileOut all the fonts in
DefaultTextStyle. Is this what you want?
