LOADFONT(1) | General Commands Manual (x68k) | LOADFONT(1)

# NAME

`loadfont` —
load and set font for the NetBSD/x68k console

# SYNOPSIS

`loadfont` | fontfile

# DESCRIPTION

`loadfont` command reads font data from fontfile and replaces the x68k console font with it.

fontfile format is compatible with that of Human68k ‘IOCS’ font.

# HISTORY

A `loadfont` utility first appeared in NetBSD 1.3.

# BUGS

Replacing kanji fonts is not supported, because current NetBSD/x68k kernel has no ability to use one other than in the ROM.

Font data in fontfile must be a full set of JIS X0201 (must contain hankaku-katakana part).
