Usage: setfont [option...] [newfont...]

Loads the console font, and possibly the corresponding screen map(s).

Options:
  -<N>, --default8x <N>             load font "default8x<N>".
  -h<N>, --font-height <N>          override font height (there shouldn't be a space in the short option).
  -o, --output-font <FILE>          write current font to <FILE>.
  -om, --output-consolemap <FILE>   write current consolemap to <FILE>.
  -ou, --output-unicodemap <FILE>   write current unicodemap to <FILE>.
  -O, --output-fullfont <FILE>      write current font and unicode map to <FILE>.
  -m, --consolemap <FILE>           load console screen map ('none' means don't load it).
  -u, --unicodemap <FILE>           load font unicode map ('none' means don't load it).
  -C, --console <DEV>               the console device to be used.
  -c, --check                       check whether console is suitable for font operations.
  -d, --double                      double size of font horizontally and vertically.
  -f, --force                       force load unicode map.
  -R, --reset                       reset the screen font, size, and unicode map to the bootup defaults.
  -v, --verbose                     be more verbose.
  -V, --version                     print version number.
  -h, --help                        print this usage message.

The options -[o|O|om|ou] are processed before the new font is uploaded.

If no <newfont> and no -[o|O|om|ou|m|u] option is given, a default
font is loaded.

There are two kinds of screen maps, one [-m] giving the correspondence
between some arbitrary 8-bit character set currently in use and the
font positions, and the second [-u] giving the correspondence between
font positions and Unicode values.

Explicitly (with -m or -u) or implicitly (in the fontfile) given
mappings will be loaded and, in the case of consolemaps, activated.
