NAME

       unifont1per - Create BMP glyph files from GNU Unifont .hex file

SYNOPSIS

       unifont1per < input_file.hex

DESCRIPTION

       unifont1per  reads  a  GNU  Unifont  .hex  file  and  for  each code point in the file, creates an output
       Bitmapped Graphics (".bmp") file in the  current  directory.   The  filename  for  each  output  file  is
       "U+codepoint.bmp", where codepoint is the Unicode codepoint for the glyph.

       Each  glyph  entry  in  a  Unifont  .hex file is expected to be 16 rows tall, and can be 8, 16, 24, or 32
       pixels wide.  The glyph sizes in output files are determined on a glyph-by-glyph basis.

       This program can be of use in extracting individual glyphs to display in a document or on a web page.

       WARNING!  This program generates one output file per code point that appears in the input stream.  If you
       feed this program a file with 1000 code points, it will generate 1000 files in your current directory.

OPTIONS

       None.

FILES

       *.hex GNU Unifont font files, read from standard input

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.
