I have posted (in net.sources.mac) the source to a BSD UNIX program
which extracts FONT resources from a Macintosh resource file and
creates files in vfont format.  Since Sun screen fonts are in vfont
format, this program allows Macintosh fonts to be used on a Sun.

Note: some fonts for the Macintosh are protected by copyright and/or
licensing agreements.  These may restrict the conversion and/or
copying of fonts to other machines.  (On the other hand, many fonts
are available in the public domain.)  My font converter is intended
for legal uses only.
