* Codepages: The PPCGREEK codepage had the two lower-case sigmas the
wrong way round. Various other corrections made to the PPCGREEK and
PPC860 codepages.
* psf2bbc: Converts a PSF font to a BBC Micro soft font.
* bbc2psf: Reverses psf2bbc; converts a BBC Micro soft font to PSF.
* The BBCMICRO codepage now covers characters 32-255.
most sense to me to bump the revision if there're changes). I thought
it would be nice to have this in pkgsrc for the upcoming release.
In this release: The author of psftools, John Elliot
<jce@seasip.demon.co.uk>, has kindly written a utility for the NetBSD
community which produces wsfont kernel headers from psf-format fonts--
and does a fantastic job of it, at that. If you're interested, install
this package and see the psf2bsd(1) manual page.
Also in this update:
* psf2wyse: New utility to convert a PSF to a soft font that can be
uploaded into a Wyse-60 or compatible terminal.
* wyse2psf: Reverses psf2wyse; converts a Wyses soft font to PSF.
The PSFTOOLS are designed to manipulate fixed-width bitmap fonts, such as
DOS or Linux console fonts. Both the PSF1 (8 pixels wide) and PSF2
(any width) formats are supported; the default output format is PSF2.
Note that these programs share no code with the Linux console utilities
(kbd).
NOTE: One may use the psf2txt utility to generate data for inclusion in
NetBSD's (or OpenBSD's) wscons built-in kernel font headers. Currently,
the output requires some additional processing; I may add additional
functionality in the future, though anyone who wishes to contribute
patches is encouraged to do so! ;)
