[sci.math] Hershey fonts

Some time ago I snarfed the Hershey font data, with a Pascal program to
display them, from a now-forgotten ftp site.  The next step, figuring out
what the format is and how to do something with the fonts, seems to be 
beyond me.  The Pascal program uses "PC-GKS" for output (I don't know
GKS) and seems to have been written by a Lisp-to-Pascal translator.
I hacked up a C program that, well, sort of works.  It only garbles about
half of the glyphs.  Does anybody have have working code to do something
like displaying the little buggers?
