<P>UNI-VGA is a Unicode VGA font for X11 and console. It is primarily
intended to be the single source of fonts for console and for XDosEmu.
<P>The font (<TT>u_vga16</TT>) is distributed in BDF format, and can be
used in X11 as is. For use on console, the <TT>bdf2psf.pl</TT> script
is included, which performs (BDF+SFM)->PSF conversion, using .sfm
file as encoding table.
<P>The package is distributed as gzipped tarball:
<A HREF="uni-vga.tgz"><TT>uni-vga.tgz</TT></A>.
<P>One of the aims while creating the font was its internal
consistency. For example, accented glyphs shouldn't differ too much
from unaccented ones, as it was in original IBM's VGA font. It also
allowed to render <I>Latin Extended Additional</I> glyphs with two
accents, which was impossible with IBM's accents' size.
<P>This font was designed to be usable both in 9-pixel (VGA text
console) and in 8-pixel (framebuffer console and X11) modes, with VGA
8th->9th pixel expansion accurately taken into account.
<H2 ALIGN=center><FONT FACE="lucida, verdana, arial, helvetica">Unicode blocks' status</FONT></H2>
<P>I didn't try to achieve a full Unicode coverage, and made only most
used blocks, which I'm familiar with.
<P>The blocks marked "Absent" are planned for inclusion in future releases.
<P>Status is given according to the Unicode 3.0.

<P>The UNI-VGA font can be distributed and modified freely, according
to the X license.
<P>The <I>Basic Latin</I> block was taken almost unchanged from
DosEmu's <TT>vga.bdf</TT>. All the other blocks (except noted) were
created mainly from scratch by me, Dmitry Bolkhovityanov.
<P>Letters in the <I>Hebrew</I> block were taken unchanged from a
public domain hebrew console font.
<P>Glyphs in <I>Arabic</I>, <I>Arabic Presentation Forms-A</I>,
<I>Arabic Presentation Forms-B</I> and U+262B <I>Farsi symbol</I>
were kindly donated by Behdad Esfahbod.
<P>Thanks to Birger Langkjer for idea, to Mark Leisher for his
wonderful XmBDFEd, and to many others for their support.
