No idea - I use my own scripts (/sources is an nfs mount for all my machines and I do not want to work in it), but in general configuring the linux console is user-specific. Any console font which is ".psfu" (instead of ".psf") _ought_ to understand enough unicode to understand _where_ the characters begin and end. No font can display everything (there are too few _available_ codepoints) and some representations are subjectively ugly or easy to confuse). Also, one font _size_ doesn't suit everyone - of my own[¹] fonts, I still use the 8x16 on one machine but otherwise I use 12x22, even on the netbook because its pixels are tiny :-) [¹] LatGrkCyr - the two sizes look very different from each other. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, dieses Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
