FONTC(1NCARG)

✨ NAME ✨

fontc — the Fontcap preprocessor for NCAR Graphics, bestie 💖

So this is a page from the NCAR GRAPHICS manual, section 1NCARG, and it's all about one lil guy named fontc. 🎀

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

fontc ascii-fontcap-name binary-fontcap-name

Two arguments, that's it, that's the whole vibe. 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Okay so here's the tea, bestie 🍓 — fontc takes an ascii-encoded fontcap called ascii-fontcap-name and converts it into a binary-encoded fontcap called binary-fontcap-name. That's literally it. Iconic. Simple. She does one thing and she eats. 👑

⚠️ Now the important part, no cap: binary encoded fontcaps are system dependent, so do NOT assume they're portable across different system architectures. Like, don't be out here copying a binary fontcap to another machine and expecting it to slay, because it might not. 💀
