1. NAME

psfaddtable - add a Unicode character table to a console font

2. SYNOPSIS

psfaddtable fontfile tablefile outfile

3. DESCRIPTION

psfaddtable takes a console font in .psf format given by fontfileand merges it with the Unicode character table given by tablefileto 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 fontfilealready contains an embedded character table, it is ignored.

4. TABLE FILE FORMAT

Each line in the tablefileshould 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.
