.SH DESCRIPTION

.IX "psfxtable command" "" "\fLpsfxtable\fR command"  

.LP

.B psfxtable

handles the embedded Unicode character table for .psf format

console fonts. It reads a font and possibly a table

and writes a font and/or a table.

.BR psfaddtable (1),

.BR psfgettable (1)

and

.BR psfstriptable (1)

are links to it.

Each of the filenames

.IR infont ,

.IR outfont ,

.IR intable ,

and

.IR outtable

may be replaced by a single dash (\-), in which case

standard input or standard output is used.

If no \-i option is given, the font is read from standard input.

If no \-it or \-o or \-ot option is given,

no input table is read or no output font or output table is written.

By default the output font (if any) will have a Unicode table

when either the input font has one, or an explicit table

(which overrides an input font table) has been provided.

The option \-nt causes output of a font without table.

When

.I outfont

is requested it will get a psf1 header when infont has

a psf1 header and

.I intable

does not have sequences and a psf2 header otherwise.
