My Cuis-Smalltalk-Unicode package subclasses AbstractFont and provides fixed width characters.

Unicode is kinda big, memory wise.  I suspect one should be able to take the ASCII subset of the Unicode glyphs and make a strike font -- or just do what I did for Unicode, but just use the ASCII subset.
