##  NAME  top

    
    
           psfxtable - handle Unicode character tables for console fonts
    

##  SYNOPSIS  top

    
    
           **psfxtable**[**-i** _infont_] [**-o** _outfont_] [**-it** _intable_] [**-ot** _outtable_]
           [**-nt**]
    

##  DESCRIPTION  top

    
    
           **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)](../man1/psfaddtable.1.html), [psfgettable(1)](../man1/psfgettable.1.html) and
           [psfstriptable(1)](../man1/psfstriptable.1.html) 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.
