NAME

       unihexpose - Convert a GNU Unifont glyph into column-major format

SYNOPSIS

       unihexpose < input-font.hex > transposed-font.hex

DESCRIPTION

       unihexpose  reads  a sorted GNU Unifont .hex file from STDIN and writes a transposed Unifont .hex file to
       STDOUT.  The output .hex file contains glyphs encoded in column major format,  with  8  rows  per  output
       column.   This will simplify output of Unifont glyphs on graphics displays with controller chips designed
       to autoincrement across a line of 8 pixel rows, one column at a time.

       The output .hex file contains a Unifont glyph in two halves: the first half is the first 8  pixels  rows,
       and the second half the second 8 pixel rows.  The glyphs are 8 or 16 columns wide.

FILES
