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  pro‐
       duce  a font file with an embedded character table, which is written to
       outfile if given, or else to standard output.  Either fontfile or  out‐
       file  (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) for‐
       mat.  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  sub‐
       sequent	numbers on the same line are Unicodes matched by this specific
       glyph slot.  It is permissible to have  multiple	 lines	for  the  same
       glyph.
