  SHOWSNF(1)          X Version 11 (Release 4)           SHOWSNF(1)



  NAME
       showsnf - print contents of an SNF file


  SYNOPSIS
       showsnf [-v] [-g] [-m] [-M] [-l] [-L] [-p#] [-u#]

  DESCRIPTION
       The showsnf utility displays the contents of font files in
       the Server Natural Format produced by bsdtosnf.  It is
       usually only to verify that a font file hasn't been
       corrupted or to convert the individual glyphs into arrays of
       characters for proofreading or for conversion to some other
       format.

  OPTIONS
       -v      This option indicates that character bearings and
               sizes should be printed.

       -g      This option indicates that character glyph bitmaps
               should be printed.

       -m      This option indicates that the bit order of the font
               is MSBFirst (most significant bit first).

       -l      This option indicates that the bit order of the font
               is LSBFirst (least significant bit first).

       -M      This option indicates that the byte order of the
               font is MSBFirst (most significant byte first).

       -L      This option indicates that the byte order of the
               font is LSBFirst (least significant byte first).

       -p#     This option specifies the glyph padding of the font
               (# is a number).

       -u#     This option specifies the scanline unit of the font
               (# is a number).
