It just occurred to me that Stefan's "FontSetStuff" fileout must be a prerequisite for "FontSetPaloAlto.st".
Since FontSetStuff was done in Squeak 2.6, and since there have been nearly 200 post-2.6 updates published in 2.7a, and since some of those updates affect fonts and styles in substantial ways, my guess is that there is a high probability that Stefan's FontSet fileouts will not work in 2.7a without some tweaking.
So I suggest that anyone wishing to try out the PaloAlto font do so in 2.6.

Somewhere on the web (I think on Helge Horch's page) I found a strike font called PaloAlto which looks like the original Smalltak-80 font. I made a fontset for this font and would like to share it here.

I filed this in, and replied "yes" to the 'Do you want to install ''PaloAlto'' as default font?' question. Everything hung, and eventually the VM crashed with what I believe is called a stack walkback with "out of memory" at the top. (I've never had this happen before - I guess that I just don't hack hard enough.)
