How do I make fonts?

[s|k]

I want to make my own font. Do I need a fancy program like you do in Windows?

A quick search at sourceforge returned these:

Console:
http://nafe.sourceforge.net/
http://fonteditfs.sourceforge.net/

OpenType, TTF, bitmap, etc
http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/
http://sourceforge.net/projects/doubletype

Hope it helps :)

I tried fontforge, I saw that in the repositories, it was dated. I'll try those, thanks. :)


EDIT: Actually fontforge is the program that does the job. Thanks.
