     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 indivi-
       dual glyphs into arrays of characters for proofread-
       ing or for conversion to some other format.

     OPTIONS
       -v      This option indicates that character bear-
               ings 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).
