You mean the source code for making PostScript fonts on the Newton,
not PT100's source code, right? I've not found the source code for
Scrawl's PT100 terminal emulator for Newton anywhere (but if you have
found it, please send me a link so I can preserve it until I can get
permission to publish it on UNNA).

As for creating fonts, see the following on the Newton FAQ:

And, Grant Hutchinson's "Creating Newton Fonts: Tools Tribulations"
(PDF) slides from WWNC 2006 can be found here:
