NAME
pcfont - modify character font on the 386 console
SYNOPSIS
pcfont [config_file]
DESCRIPTION
The pcfont command modifies the system console font enabling
new characters to be defined and default characters to be
reordered. This allows code sets other than the default PC437
to be supported. If no file name is supplied, all characters
are reset to the default font stored in the graphics card ROM
(PC437). The current font is indicated by the presence of the
file /usr/lib/fonts/.font.fontname. When this file is not
present, the default PC437 font is used.
The following configuration files are supplied with your
UnixWare system in the Language Supplement package:
