NAME

       displayfont - display linux console font

SYNOPSIS

       displayfont [-8|-14|-16] [-k[eep]] [font]

DESCRIPTION

       The displayfont program displays given font on console; if font is
       omitted, displays current font. All characters are shown, regardless of
       their possible special meaning. The program hardly attempts to restore
       original console state, font and unicode mapping after usage.
       512-character fonts are handled as well.

OPTIONS

       -8, -14, -16
           Select font size for files in codepage format (.cp).

       -keep
           Do not restore original font and unicode mapping. May be
           abbreviated to -k.

SEE ALSO

       console(4), setfont(8), showfont (no such manpage?).

BUGS

       Linux-specific; was not tested on non-i386 systems.
