how to install new .strike files into the fonts directory

[masinter]

@MattHeffron asks how to install new .strike files @ecraven was working on converting (bdf? ttf?) fonts through some font transformation utility to create rasters. I think these get installed in the medley/fonts/displayfonts/cNN directory where NN is 0 for 'charset' 0, and with the name <family><size>-<style>-c<N>.displayfont where family is the typeface, style is a 3-letter code (MRR is the default) e.g. GACHA10-MRR-C0.DISPLAYFONT. There was a time where this seemed to only work well if the font file name was all caps but I haven't tried otherwise lately.

This was a bit of a mess because the organization of font files into directories went through several different eras... the Maiko emulation of the {DSK} file system (case insensitive, versioned) had some order-N^2 algorithms where N was the number of files in a directory. The separation by charset number was one organization and the separation by type styles was another, and the code was hacked to adopt one or the other (as the 'old' and 'new' way where 'new' was older than 'old').
