SYNOPSIS

10       albatross [options] glyphs...
11

DESCRIPTION

13       albatross is a command line tool for finding fonts that contain a given
14       (Unicode) glyph. It relies on Fontconfig, a library for configuring and
15       customizing font access.
16
17       Albatross takes a list of glyphs as input. Two formats are supported:
18
19       #1     The glyph itself, e.g, ß (Eszett).  Internally,  the  tool  will
20              convert it to the corresponding Unicode code point.
21
22       #2     The  glyph  as a Unicode code point in the hexadecimal notation,
23              e.g, 0xDF.  The 0x prefix is mandatory. Note that the tool takes
24              the  value  as  case insensitive, e.g, 0xDF is equal to 0xdf (or
25              any case combination thereof).
