Thansk for the fonts. Are there any screenshot available? :-)

great!
a little offtopic - but does anyone know of a method to convert these
fonts into truetype or PS-fonts to use them on the Mac?

Mit fontforge versuchen.
Unter Debian: apt-get install fontforge ;
Load the gunzipped font and try File->Export font... (choose format)

not know how they looked like in the original. Now there are only 3 of
them left, namely { } and greek "mu". So if anyone has a
screenshot/photograph/pdf book in which those appear please send me a
copy.
Also, I have incorpored a couple of modifications made later in the
history of the lisp machines in order to make the font more usable: a
little serif at the tip of both l and i and a more centered apostroph.

the original CADR nor Symbolics-CADR.
Give me a couple of days allowance to check { } do not infringe
copyright (i.e. they are identical to some third party free sets) or
someone confirms they weren't modified from the original CADR ones
(covered by the MIT license). Also, note greek "mu" is still missing,
and we know it was there from the keyboard (as seen googling for 'space
cadet' kbd).
Thanks a lot. You've been very kind.

No mus is good mus?
rydis
I don't see a mu character in the emulator, when I (fed).
Screenshots of the whole font, the lbrace and the rbrace is at

I never used an actual CADR, but it seems to me that there might be no
mu in the "regular" font, but perhaps instead in a special, separate
font.

Have you considered downloading the CADR emulator that runs under
Unix (at least), booting it, and seeing what it looks like?

Modifications applied and already available at
http://www.eurogaran.com/downloads/lispmfont
Now the font is both ascii-correct and ascii-complete, thanks to you.

That's why I am calling for help on this issue. The mu is required by
iso8859-15

Yes. That's what I did, and where the screenshots are from. What I
don't know is what happens on an actual machine, if you press whatever
key-combo is needed for mu.

I don't understand the question. What happens when you press those keys
on the emulated machine? It's writing to the screen device (bitmap)
and using the fonts you are interested in. (For that matter, why can't
you just download the font file from the emulated machine?)
rydis
Good point. I didn't think about checking whether the front/top stuff
worked. As it happens, only rather few of the front or top combos do
anything except flash TYI, when I try it in Zmacs or the listener.
Thanks for the hint! (Also note that it isn't me doing the font stuff.)

CADR keyboards was never implemented totally (which explains why
commercial lispms had a downsized kbd). If that's the case, then we can
go along with an imagined mu, as we have to do with for instance
accented letters (one of the many reasons why you can't just adopt but
adapt the original).
I had hope somebody in this list had access to an original machine to
confirm that.

I'm not saying that. The version of the OS that I'm running on the
CADR emulator is far from the "final" version; it's fairly old.
