NAME¶
psfaddtable - add a Unicode character table to a console font
SYNOPSIS¶
psfaddtable fontfile tablefile outfile
DESCRIPTION¶
psfaddtable takes a console font in .psf format given by fontfile
and merges it with the Unicode character table given by tablefile to
produce a font file with an embedded character table, which is written to
outfile. An input file name of "-" denotes standard input,
and an output file name of "-" denotes standard output. If the
fontfile already contains an embedded character table, it is ignored.
Each line in the tablefile should be either blank, contain a comment
(preceded by #), or contain a sequence of numbers in either decimal
(default), octal (preceded by 0), or hexadecimal (preceded by
0x) format, separated by spaces or tabs. The first number on each line
indicates the glyph slot in the font that is being referred to, this is
between 0 and 0xff for a 256-character font and 0 and 0x1ff for a
512-character font. Any subsequent numbers on the same line are Unicodes
matched by this specific glyph slot. Instead of a single Unicode one may have
a sequence of Unicodes separates by commas, to denote that the glyph depicts
the corresponding composed symbol. It is permissible to have multiple lines
for the same glyph.
