## NAME
       psfaddtable - add a Unicode character table to a console font

## SYNOPSIS
       **psfaddtable** _fontfile_ _tablefile_ _outfile_

## DESCRIPTION
       **psfaddtable** takes a console font in .psf format given by _fontfile_ and merges it with the Uni‐
       code character table given by _tablefile_ to produce a font file with an embedded character ta‐
       ble,  which  is written to _outfile_.  An input file name of "-" denotes standard input, and an
       output file name of "-" denotes standard output.  If the _fontfile_ already contains an  embed‐
       ded character table, it is ignored.

## TABLE FILE FORMAT
       Each line in the _tablefile_ should be either blank, contain a comment (preceded by _#_), or con‐
       tain a sequence of numbers in either decimal (default), octal (preceded by _0_), or hexadecimal
       (preceded  by  _0x_)  format, separated by spaces or tabs.  The first number on each line indi‐
       cates the glyph slot in the font that is being referred to, this is between 0 and 0xff for  a
       256-character  font  and 0 and 0x1ff for a 512-character font.  Any subsequent numbers on the
       same line are Unicodes matched by this specific glyph slot.  Instead of a single Unicode  one
       may  have  a  sequence  of Unicodes separates by commas, to denote that the glyph depicts the
       corresponding composed symbol.  It is permissible to have multiple lines for the same glyph.
