Yes, I've looked through a few MF tutorials,and things don't seem look so bad...

so I have another question: how to obtain from this handmade non-feta font 
desired glyph
as a stencil? I mean something like this:

(ly:font-get-glyph (what here?) "glyph-name?")

BTW: I also try to design my symbols without gui, and  I have to correct output 
generated
by such programs at least (usually curves).
