!!NAME


psfaddtable - add a Unicode character table to a console font
!!SYNOPSIS


__psfaddtable__ ''fontfile tablefile
[[outfile]''
!!DESCRIPTION


__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'' if given, or else to standard output. Either
''fontfile'' or ''outfile'' (but not both) can be
replaced by a single dash (-) to read from standard input
instead. If the ''fontfile'' already contains an embedded
character table, it is ignored.
!!TABLE FILE FORMAT


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. 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. It is permissible to have multiple lines for the same
glyph.
