NAME
       bterm - framebuffer terminal emulator

SYNOPSIS
       bterm -f font.bgf [-l locale] [program]

DESCRIPTION
       bterm  is  a terminal emulator for the Linux framebuffer.  It supports multibyte locales and wide characters, in addition to basic terminal
       features such as cursor positioning.

OPTIONS
       -f font.bgf
	      Specify the font.  BGF fonts are produced by bdftobogl(1) from standard BDF font files.

       -l locale
	      Specify a locale for bterm and processes run within it.  The locale may also be specified normally in the environment.  If a locale,
	      especially  one  with a different character set than the current locale, will be used inside of bterm, it should be specified on the
	      command line.

EXIT STATUS
       The following exit values are returned:

       0      Successful completion.
