What is the relation between consolechars, charset and the
/etc/console-tools/config file?  

On boot up the console characters are hard to read without glasses.
The command consolechars -d changes to a very bold font.
The man page for charset indicates the default font is cp427 or iso01.
The entries in /etc/console-tools/config set APP_CHAR_MAP=utf8 and
SCREEN_FONT=uni3-TerminusBold16

After experimenting I edited /etc/console-tools/config to change the
line 

SCREEN_FONT=uni3-TerminusBold16

to

SCREEN_FONT=uni3-TerminusBold32x16

which gave me a console font I can read without glasses.

This works for me but I am left wondering about the different options.

Tom
