LOADUNIMAP(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     LOADUNIMAP(8)

NAME
loadunimap - load the kernel unicode-to-font mapping table
SYNOPSIS
loadunimap [ -C console ] [ -o oldmap ] [ map ]
DESCRIPTION
The loadunimap command is obsolete - its function is now built-in into setfont. However, for backwards compatibility it is still available as a separate command. The program loadunimap loads the specified map in the kernel unicode-to-font mapping table. If no map is given def is assumed. The default extension (that can be omitted) is .uni. If the -o oldmap option is given, the old map is saved in the file specified. On Linux 2.6.1 and later one can specify the console device using the -C option. Usually one does not call loadunimap directly - its function is also built into setfont.
FILES
/usr/share/unimaps is the default directory for unicode mappings.
