Hi Andrey,
#DefaultTextStyle is a key in TextConstants. You can find all usages of DefaultTextStyle if you search for its senders (select it and ctrl-n).
HTH, Adrian

Is symbol may contain a value?
As I understand it, the symbol is the value itself. Suppose you use #something. Everywhere in the image you use #something, you will be talking about the same symbol. They don't have a dynamic value as String. I mean, in String you set it a value. In symbols, they already are the value. They are literal.
I don't know If I am being clear enough.

Two test in FontTest assumes what TextStyle>>default will answer a some Accuny font with some size. But if we override default font - test will fail. I'll try to find solution and fix, but new vm and image crashed during debuging. I think solution will be to create corresponding TextStyle for test.
Also i'm a newbie and can some clarify what is DefaultTextStyle? It not declared as instance or class variable.
I am also a but newbie but I think that's a symbol Is it actually #DefaultTextStyle ?
If true, yes, it would probably be a symbol. A symbol, as Squeak By
Example
says is:
" Symbols are like Strings, in that they contain a sequence of characters.   However, unlike a string, a literal symbol is guaranteed to be globally   unique. There is only one Symbol object #Hello but there may be   multiple String objects with the value 'Hello'. "
See SBE for more documentation.
However, if there is something that it is not a class neither a class variable, it can be a global variable. For example, do a expect it of Smalltalk. You may think Smalltalk is a class, but it doesn't. It is global variable. Indeed it is an object of SystemDirectory.
Cheers,
Mariano
