NAME         top

       psfaddtable - add a Unicode character table to a console font

SYNOPSIS         top

       psfaddtable fontfile tablefile outfile

DESCRIPTION         top

       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.

TABLE FILE FORMAT         top

       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.
