Font converter to generate console fonts from BDF source fonts
 This is a command line converter that can be used in scripts to build
 automatically console fonts from BDF sources.  The converter comes
 with a collection of font encodings that cover many of the world
 languages; notice that the font encoding (so called SFM) does not
 need to follow the actually used encoding (so called ACM).  When the
 source font does not define a glyph for a symbol in the font encoding
 the glyph position in the console font is not wasted but used for
 another symbol.
 .
 When deciding about the position in the font for a particular glyph,
 the converter takes into account that in text video modes the video
 adapter copies the 8th column of the glyph matrix of symbols
 positioned in the pseudographic area to the 9th column.  In order to
 create fonts for text video modes the width of the glyph matrix of
 the source BDF font should be 7, 8 or 9 pixels, otherwise the
 converter creates fonts suitable for framebuffer only.

Setup the font and the keyboard on the console
 The package provides the Linux console with the same versatile
 keyboard configuration that X Window uses.  As a result there is no
 need to duplicate or change the keyboard files just to make simple
 customisations such as the use of dead keys, the key functioning as
 AltGr or Compose key, the key(s) to switch between Latin and
 non-Latin mode, etc.
 .
 The package also contains console fonts supporting many of the world
 languages.  It provides an unified set of font faces - the classic
 VGA, the simplistic Fixed, and the cleaned Terminus, TerminusBold and
 TerminusBoldVGA.
Changes: console-setup (1.0) unstable; urgency=low
