okay so this is fnt2psf, part of the PSF Tools crew π
it takes a Windows font-resource file and, like, glow-up-transforms it into PSF format. iconic behaviour, honestly.
πΈ NAME πΈ
fnt2psf β convert a Windows font-resource file to PSF format π¦
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
fnt2psf [--codepage=page] [--psf1] [--psf2] [INPUTFILE [OUTPUTFILE]]
π DESCRIPTION π
so here's the tea π« β fnt2psf takes a Windows font-resource file (that's a .FNT file, iykyk) and converts it into PSF format. like a makeover but for fonts, no cap.
β οΈ if the file is not monospaced, it'll throw a warning at you β but bestie, it's still gonna go ahead and do the conversion anyway. it's giving "I heard you, and I'm doing it regardless" π
π OPTIONS π
--psf1β force the output into PSF1 format. old school, but make it fashion π--psf2β force the output into PSF2 format. this is the default, so if you don't say anything, this is what you get β¨- *
--codepage=page* β add a Unicode directory for the codepage you specify. you can name it by number or by name β either works, we're flexible like that π check outpsfpages(1)for the full list of valid codepage names π
π«Ά psst β if you don't pass this option at all, the program just assumes stuff on your behalf: codepage 437 for fonts in the"OEM"character set, and codepage 1252 for fonts in the"ANSI"character set. she's decisive, we love her.
