cursed_font is a 9x18 bitmapped font designed for low-DPI screens. It was
originally an embiggened and monospace-ified version of Apple's Chicago font
from System 6, but it also takes inspiration from many other fonts such as
bizcat, ttyp0, tamzen, scientifica.
This is already in pkgsrc as UnifrakturMaguntia-ttf.
And I imported it there last year.
Seems I liked this font so much I thought it should be in pkgsrc twice!
Jomolhari is a Tibetan script Uchen font created by Christopher Fynn,
freely available under the Open Font License. It supports text
encoded using the Unicode Standard and the Chinese national standard
for encoding characters of the Tibetan script (GB/T20524-2006 "Tibetan
Coded Character Set"). The design of the font is based on Bhutanese
manuscript examples and it is suitable for text in Tibetan, Dzongkha
and other languages written in the Tibetan script.
Only a few pieces of software are using the ICU integration library,
these aren't the big harfbuzz users (i.e. gtk). this is intended to lessen
the impact of icu's frequent ABI breaks.
pkglint 20.2.0 (and a bit earlier) does not insist on entries
for directories any longer that do not contain complete packages.
Remove them.
While here, fix security/Makefile that had two missing entries.
UW ttyp0 is a family of bitmap programmer's fonts in bdf format. It covers
most of the Latin and Cyrillic alphabet, Greek, Armenian, Georgian (only
Mkhedruli), Hebrew (without cantillation marks), Thai, most of IPA (but no
UPA), standard punctuation, common symbols, some mathematics, line graphics,
a few dingbats, and Powerline delimiter symbols.
UW ttyp0 comes in nine sizes from 6x11 to 11x22. In all of the sizes there
are regular and bold versions; for some there is also a (somewhat experimental)
italic.
Recursive Mono & Sans is a variable type family built for better code
& UI. It is inspired by casual script signpainting, but designed
primarily to meet the needs of programming environments and
application interfaces.
In programming, "recursion" is when a function calls itself, using its
own output as an input to yield powerful results. Recursive Mono was
used as a tool to help build itself: it was used to write Python
scripts to automate type production work and to generate specimen
images, and it was used in HTML, CSS, and JS to create web-based
proofs & prototypes. Through this active usage, Recursive Mono was
crafted to be both fun to look at as well as deeply useful for all-day
work.
Recursive Sans borrows glyphs from its parent mono but adjusts the
widths of many key glyphs for comfortable readability. Its metrics are
superplexed - every style takes up the exact same horizontal space,
across all styles. In this 3-axis variable font, this allows for fluid
transitions between weight, slant, and "expression" (casual to strict
letterforms), all without text shifts or layout reflow. Not only does
this allow for new interactive possibilities in UI, but it also makes
for a uniquely fun typesetting experience.
Unscii is a set of bitmapped Unicode fonts based on classic system
fonts. Unscii attempts to support character cell art well while also
being suitable for terminal and programming use.
The two main variants are unscii-8 (8x8) and unscii-16 (8x16). There
are also several alternative styles for unscii-8, as well as a 8x16
"full" variant that incorporates missing Unicode glyphs from Fixedsys
Excelsior and GNU Unifont. "unscii-16-full" falls under GPL because of
how Unifont is licensed; the other variants are in the Public Domain.
HEX and PCF are the only actual bitmapped formats here. HEX is the
same simple hexdump format as used by the Unifont project.
TTF, OTF and WOFF are vectorized because the bitmapped TTF fonts
generated by FontForge didn't seem to work anywhere. Fixes to this
problem are appreciated.
IBM-plex-otf provides the OpenType fonts of the Plex font family.
It comes in a Sans, Serif, Mono and Sans Condensed, all with
roman and true italics.
The fonts have been designed to work well in
user interface (UI) environments as well as other mediums.

A color and B&W emoji SVGinOT font built from the Twitter Emoji
for Everyone artwork with support for ZWJ, skin tone diversity and
country flags.
The font works in all operating systems, but will currently only
show color emoji in Firefox and Thunderbird. This is not a limitation
of the font, but of the operating systems and applications. Regular
B&W outline emoji are included for backwards/fallback compatibility.
The Culmus project aims at providing the Hebrew-speaking GNU/Linux
and Unix community with a basic collection of Hebrew fonts for X
Windows. Presently the collection contains fifteen font families
of different styles.
