Two questions:
1. I have a SunTools font that I'm rather fond of that I'd like to use under
   X.  Is there any simple way I can get it converted?  (I put the font
   together myself, so there's no copyright infringement problem.)

2. Are there any font editors available under X?

  I seem to remember an article passing by about two months ago that
dealt with both these questions.

  Also, since I'm asking these kinds of questions: is there anything like
the SunTools toolplaces(1) program available for X?  It's tremendously
inconvenient to set up the screen the way you want it to look on start up
without something like toolplaces.
