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 psfstript‐
       able(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.
