+1. About.
+
+This archive contains source code for generating and installing Terminus
+Font for Linux console, BSD console and X11 Window System.
+
+- version	4.30
+- sizes		6x12, 8x14, 8x16, 10x20, 11x22, 12x24, 14x28, 16x32
+- styles	normal, bold, EGA/VGA bold
+- characters	850
+- format	Bitmap Distribution Format (BDF) version 2.1
+
+The character set covers about 120 language sets and supports ISO8859-1/2/5/
+7/9/13/15/16, Paratype-PT154/PT254, KOI8-R/U/E/F, Esperanto and many IBM,
+Windows and Macintosh code pages, as well as the IBM VGA, vt100 and xterm
+pseudographic characters.
+
+1.1. Quick installation.
+
+The commands:
+
+$ ./configure [--prefix=PREFIX]
+$ make
+# make install fontdir
+
+compile and install the Linux console and X11 Window System fonts.
+The default PREFIX is /usr/local.
+
+1.2. Legend.
+
+The file names are structured as follows:
+
+ter-u<SIZE><STYLE>.bdf
+
+where <SIZE> is the font height, and <STYLE> is n for normal (all sizes), b
+for bold (all sizes except 6x12) and v for EGA/VGA bold (8x14 and 8x16 only,
+makes use of the eight character matrix column).
+
+1.3. Variants.
+
+Some characters are implemented in two variants. The alternate variants are
+on the font WEB page. To use a variant, download it and execute:
+
+zcat terminus-font-<VERSION>-<NAME>.diff.gz | patch -p1
+
+before installation. <VERSION> is the font version and <NAME> identifies the
+variant.
+
+1.4. Notes.
+
+The commands marked with $ can be executed by a regular user.
+The configure commands are optional.
+
+A lot of characters are available only under X11/ISO10646-1 (UTF+8/Unicode).
+
+6x12, 14x28-bold and 16x32-normal are worse than the other sizes/styles.
+Avoid them.
+
+210E and 210F are not italic.
+
+
+2. Linux console.
+
+- sizes		6x12, 8x14, 8x16, 10x20, 11x22, 12x24, 14x28 and 16x32
+- styles	normal, bold, framebuffer-bold
+- code pages	ISO8859-1/ISO8859-15/Windows-1252, ISO8859-2/Windows-1250,
+		Windows-1251/ISO8859-5, ISO8859-9/Windows-1254, ISO8859-16,
+		ISO8859-7/Windows-1253, ISO8859-13/Windows-1257, IBM-437,
+		Bulgarian-MIK, KOI8-R, KOI8-U, Paratype-PT154, combined
+- format	PC Screen Font (PSF) with unicode data
+
+2.1. consoletools.
+
+$ ./configure [--prefix=PREFIX | --psfdir=DIRECTORY]
+$ make psf
+# make install-psf
+
+The files are compressed with gzip and installed in DIRECTORY. The default
+DIRECTORY is PREFIX/share/consolefonts. Requires Perl.
+
+If you lack mappings for Windows-1252/1250/1251/1254/1253/1257, ISO8859-16,
+IBM-437, KOI8-R, Bulgarian-MIK or Paratype-PT154/PT254, also run:
+
+$ ./configure [--prefix=PREFIX | --acmdir=DIRECTORY]
+$ make txt
+# make install-acm
+
+The default DIRECTORY is PREFIX/share/consoletrans. Requires awk.
+Uninstallation of the mappings is not supported. To load a font:
+
+$ consolechars [-m MAPPING] -f ter-<X><SIZE><STYLE>
+
+where <X> is a character identifying the code page as listed in p.2.4.
+
+2.2. kbd.
+
+$ ./configure [--psfdir=DIRECTORY]
+$ make psf
+# make install-psf
+
+where DIRECTORY should be either PREFIX/lib/kbd/consolefonts or
+PREFIX/share/kbd/consolefonts, depending on kbd version. Missing mappings
+are installed with:
+
+$ ./configure [--prefix=PREFIX | --unidir=DIRECTORY]
+$ make txt
+# make install-uni
+
+The default DIRECTORY is PREFIX/share/kbd/consoletrans. Requires awk. To
+load a font:
+
+$ setfont [-m MAPPING] ter-<X><SIZE><STYLE>
+
+where <X> is a character identifying the code page as listed in p.2.4.
+
+2.3. Quick reference.
+
+The commands:
+
+$ ./configure [--prefix=PREFIX | --psfdir=DIRECTORY | --ref=FILENAME]
+# make install-ref
+
+install the text from p.2.4 as FILENAME (the default is README.terminus)
+in DIRECTORY.
+
+2.4. Legend.

+
+# make install-raw
+
+The default DIRECTORY is PREFIX/share/misc/pcvtfonts. The fonts are
+installed uncompressed. Requires Perl. To load a font:
+
+$ loadfont -f /usr/share/misc/pcvtfonts/ter-<X><STYLE>.8<SIZE>
+
+or, for file names with minus instead of period:
+
+$ loadfont -f /usr/share/misc/pcvtfonts/ter-<X><STYLE>-8x<SIZE>

+3.3. Notes.
+
+The RAW font contains data only and should be compatible with all UNIX
+systems. If any of the bold fonts doesn't look good try framebuffer-bold,
+or, if you are using an EGA/VGA adapter, program it to to clear column 8 of
+the character matrix (attribute controller register 0x10 bit 0x02).
+
+
+4. X11 Window System.
+
+- sizes		6x12, 8x14, 8x16, 10x20, 11x22, 12x24, 14x28 and 16x32
+- styles	normal, bold
+- code pages	ISO8859-1/Windows-1252, ISO8859-2, ISO8859-5, ISO8859-7,
+		ISO8859-9/Windows-1254, ISO8859-13, ISO8859-15, ISO8859-16,
+		Windows-1251, KOI8-R, KOI8-U, Paratype-PT154, ISO10646-1
+- format	Portable Compiled Font (PCF)
+
+4.1. Installation.
+
+$ ./configure [--prefix=PREFIX | --x11dir=DIRECTORY]
+$ make pcf
+# make install-pcf
+
+The files are compressed with gzip and installed in DIRECTORY. The default
+DIRECTORY is PREFIX/share/fonts/terminus. Requires Perl and bdftopcf.
+
+A copy of the normal 6x12 font is installed as "bold", because some X11
+libraries and applications substitute the missing bold fonts by shifting the
+normal fonts, and others do not recognize the bold style at all if the
+lowest font size lacks it. To install only the normal font, use "n12"
+instead of "pcf" in the above commands.
+
+To update the font cache in DIRECTORY after (un)installation, run:
+
+# make fontdir
+
+The configuration file which lists the font directories must contain
+DIRECTORY. If xfs or the X-server were active during the installation, they
+should be restarted so the font list can be updated.
+
+See also: mkfontscale(1), mkfontdir(1), fc-cache(1), xorg.conf(5) and
+fonts-conf(5).
+
+4.2. Notes.
+
+The ISO8859-1 and ISO8859-9 fonts contain the Windows Western characters and
+can be used as Windows-1252 and Windows-1254 respectively.
+
+
+5. Frequently Asked Questions.
+
+Q. Italic version?
+
+A. No. The quality is significantly lower, and preserving the font width
+requires overlapping characters, which are not handled very well by X11/Xft.
+If you need it than much, try mkitalic from FreeBSD or bdfslant from Debian.
+
+Q. Scalable version?
+
+A. Long story short, when the average display resolution becomes at least
+150 DPI. Prefferably 200.
+
+Q. How about some new characters?
+
+A. Contact me and be ready to help.
+
+Q. The bold 6x12 font...
+
+A. ...does not exist, there is no space for a bold font in a 6x12 matrix.
+However, the "normal" font is somewhere between.
+
+Q. The font works in X11/Motif, but not in GNOME/KDE/Xfce.
+
+A. See mkfontscale(1), mkfontdir(1), fc-cache(1), xorg.conf(5), xfs(1),
+xlsfonts(1), fonts-conf(5) etc.
