NAME

displayfont - display linux console font

SYNOPSIS

displayfont [-8|-14|-16] [-k[eep]] [font]

DESCRIPTION

The displayfont program displays given font on console; if font is omitted, displays current font. All characters are shown, regardless of their possible special meaning. The program hardly attempts to restore original console state, font and unicode mapping after usage. 512-character fonts are handled as well.

OPTIONS

-8, -14, -16

Select font size for files in codepage format (.cp).

-keep

Do not restore original font and unicode mapping. May be abbreviated to -k.

SEE ALSO

console(4), setfont(8), showfont (no such manpage?).

BUGS

Linux-specific; was not tested on non-i386 systems.
