FONTDUMP(1)

💖 FONTDUMP(1) — the girlies' guide to fontdump 💖

okay bestie, sit down, hydrate, and let me tell you about fontdump, a lil cutie from the General Commands Manual section of your system. it's the manual page for the fontdump command, and yeah, it's short, but it's iconic. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

fontdump — extract fonts from files 🦋

like. that's the whole job. it pulls fonts out of files. main character energy fr fr.

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

fontdump [FILE]

that's it, that's the vibe. you hand it a FILE (or don't, bestie, it's optional — the brackets said so 🙈) and it does its thing.

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so, real talk: this manual page documents briefly the fontdump command. brief is the keyword here — she's not gonna over-explain herself, she's got places to be. 💀

here's the tea though: fontdump can dump bitmap fonts of sizes 8x8, 8x14, and 8x16. those three. no more, no less. pick your size, slay your size. ✨

and then?? the fun part?? you can use them later with the commands setfont or consolechars. so it's giving prep work. it's giving supporting role that eats every single time. dump now, style your console later. 🫶

no cap: the fonts you dump are meant to be reused with setfont or consolechars — that's the whole point of the dump, bestie.

🔥 SEE ALSO 🔥

now go dump some fonts. periodt. 💅✨
