PSFSTRIPTABLE(1)
โจ PSFSTRIPTABLE โจ
okay bestie, so psfstriptable is that girl ๐
she removes the embedded Unicode character table from a console font. that's it. that's her whole job. and she does it flawlessly, no cap ๐
๐ธ SYNOPSIS ๐ธ
psfstriptable fontfile outfile
๐ DESCRIPTION ๐
so here's the tea โ psfstriptable reads a .psf format console font from fontfile โ and if there's an embedded Unicode font table hiding in there, she removes it ๐ซถ then she writes the result out to outfile. iconic behavior, honestly.
and the little plot twist: a fontfile of - means standard input, and an outfile of - means standard output ๐ฆ so you can pipe her around like the main character she is. iykyk โจ
ngl this is the "no thoughts, just strip the table" font utility. she's not adding anything, she's not converting anything, she's just taking the table OUT. periodt ๐
