NAME

unihex2bmp - GNU Unifont .hex file to bitmap graphics file converter  

SYNOPSIS


unihex2bmp [-phexpage] [-iinput_file] [-ooutput_file] [-f] [-w]  

DESCRIPTION

unihex2bmp reads a GNU Unifont .hex file Unicode page of 256 code points and converts the page into a Microsoft Windows Bitmap (.bmp) or Wireless Bitmap (.wbmp) file. The bitmap file displays the glyphs of a Unicode block of 256 code points in a 32 by 32 pixel grid. The glyphs themselves must be 16 rows, and either 8 columns or 16 columns wide. The default page is 0; that is, the range U+0000 throught U+00FF.

The bitmap can be printed. It can also be edited with a bitmap editor. An edited bitmap can then be re-converted into a GNU Unifont .hex file with the unibmp2hex command.

 

OPTIONS

-ppagenum
Extract page pagenum from the .hex file. The default is Page 0 (Unicode range U+0000 through U+00FF). Note that "page" is not a standard Unicode term. It refers to an output bitmap graphics page of 16 by 16 code points.
-i
Specify the input file. The default is stdin.
-o
Specify the output file. The default is stdout.
-f
"Flip" (transpose) the grid so it matches the Unicode standard order.
-w
Produce a Wireless Bitmap format file instead of a Microsoft Windows Bitmap file.

BUGS

No known real bugs exist, except that this software does not perform extensive error checking on its input files. If they're not in the format of the original GNU Unifont hex file, all bets are off. Lines can be terminated either with carriage return, or carriage return plus line feed.
