I used the binary from Debian unstable "xskat" package. Download the 
package for ARM platform. A Debian .deb is in fact a tar archive. 
Untar it, all you need is the binary called xskat. Copy it to your 
770.

I started it from xterm. If you've got it in your home directory or 
some other non-standard place, you need to give the full path.

Probably, you'll get an error that xskat doesn't find a suitable font. 
In that case, get the "xlsfont" binary from the xlsfont Debian 
package, and run it on your 770. It will print a list of fonts 
available on your 770. Choose one and call xskat with the 
option -font like this:

xskat -font name_of_your_font

That should work. See the xskat manpage for details.

Cheers,
Hans
