NAME
       psfxtable - handle Unicode character tables for console fonts

SYNOPSIS
       psfxtable [-i infont] [-o outfont] [-it intable] [-ot outtable] [-nt]

DESCRIPTION
       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.   psfaddtable(1),
       psfgettable(1) and psfstriptable(1) are links to it.

       Each  of  the filenames infont, outfont, intable, and 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 outfont is requested  it  will
       get  a psf1 header when infont has a psf1 header and intable does not have sequences and a
       psf2 header otherwise.
