6 psfaddtable - add a Unicode character table to a console font
7
9 psfaddtable fontfile tablefile outfile
10
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.

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.
