            "content": "psfaddtable  takes  a console font in .psf format given by fontfile and\nmerges it with the Unicode character table given by tablefile  to  pro-\nduce  a font file with an embedded character table, which is written to\noutfile.  An input file name of \"-\" denotes standard input, and an out-\nput  file name of \"-\" denotes standard output.  If the fontfile already\ncontains an embedded character table, it is ignored.\n",

        "TABLE FILE FORMAT": {
            "content": "Each line in the tablefile should be either blank,  contain  a  comment\n(preceded  by  #),  or  contain a sequence of numbers in either decimal\n(default), octal (preceded by 0), or hexadecimal (preceded by 0x)  for-\nmat,  separated by spaces or tabs.  The first number on each line indi-\ncates the glyph slot in the font that is being referred to, this is be-\ntween  0  and  0xff  for  a  256-character  font  and 0 and 0x1ff for a\n512-character font.  Any subsequent numbers on the same line  are  Uni-\ncodes matched by this specific glyph slot.  Instead of a single Unicode\none may have a sequence of Unicodes separates by commas, to denote that\nthe glyph depicts the corresponding composed symbol.  It is permissible\nto have multiple lines for the same glyph.\n",
