SYNOPSIS

9       psfaddtable fontfile tablefile outfile
10

DESCRIPTION

12       psfaddtable  takes  a console font in .psf format given by fontfile and
13       merges it with the Unicode character table given by tablefile  to  pro‐
14       duce  a font file with an embedded character table, which is written to
15       outfile.  An input file name of "-" denotes standard input, and an out‐
16       put  file name of "-" denotes standard output.  If the fontfile already
17       contains an embedded character table, it is ignored.

TABLE FILE FORMAT

20       Each line in the tablefile should be either blank,  contain  a  comment
21       (preceded  by  #),  or  contain a sequence of numbers in either decimal
22       (default), octal (preceded by 0), or hexadecimal (preceded by 0x)  for‐
23       mat,  separated by spaces or tabs.  The first number on each line indi‐
24       cates the glyph slot in the font that is being  referred  to,  this  is
25       between  0  and  0xff  for  a  256-character font and 0 and 0x1ff for a
26       512-character font.  Any subsequent numbers on the same line  are  Uni‐
27       codes matched by this specific glyph slot.  Instead of a single Unicode
28       one may have a sequence of Unicodes separates by commas, to denote that
29       the glyph depicts the corresponding composed symbol.  It is permissible
30       to have multiple lines for the same glyph.
