REMAPBDF(1X11)          COMMAND REFERENCE          REMAPBDF(1X11)



NAME
     remapbdf - change the glyph positions in a Bitmap
     Distribution Format file

SYNOPSIS
     remapbdf [ -c ] mapfile

     This is a supported client.

DESCRIPTION
     This program reads BDF (Bitmap Distribution Format) from
     stdin and writes BDF to stdout, changing the positions of
     the glyphs according to the pairs of numbers in mapfile.
     The first number of the pair is the old position and the
     second number is the new position. There is only one level
     of mapping, so no loops can happen.  Any old characters
     remaining at the former position are deleted once the
     mappings are complete.

     The mapfile may have comments, marked by a first character
     of '#' or '!'.

OPTIONS
     -c      Causes  remapbdf to copy characters to the new
             position, rather than moving them.

     -W      Print warnings for characters with an encoding of
             -1; the default is to silently toss such characters.

CAVEATS
     Don't count on the ordering of the characters; the moved
     ones are just appended to the list.

     Only maps fonts up to 256 characters.
