Hi,

To ease the transition to Athens, we need to get free type fonts in the image. I researched a bit, and found a couple of font families that are nicely free and open-source: DejaVu, Source Code Pro, Source Sans Pro, and LinLibertine.

I put together a little tool that imports a TTF file and installs it in a dedicated class. You can find a library of already imported fonts on SmalltalkHub:
http://www.smalltalkhub.com/#!/~girba/FreeFonts/

More details about this library can be found at:
http://www.tudorgirba.com/blog/free-font-collection-for-pharo

For example, you can use the SourceCodeProRegular font as a code font like:
Gofer new
  smalltalkhubUser: 'girba' project: 'FreeFonts';
  package: 'SourceCodeProRegular';
  load.
(Smalltalk at: #SourceCodeProRegular) new install.
FreeTypeSystemSettings loadFt2Library: true.
StandardFonts codeFont: (LogicalFont familyName: 'Source Code Pro' pointSize: 10).

The Moose image already comes with a convenience method to set a complete free type font set:
MooseImageSetupCommandLineHandler new installFonts.

Cheers,
Doru
