NAME
       displayfont - display linux console font

SYNOPSIS
       displayfont [-8|-14|-16] [-k[eep]] [font]

DESCRIPTION
       The displayfont program displays given font on console; if font is omitted, displays current font. All characters are shown, regardless of
       their possible special meaning. The program hardly attempts to restore original console state, font and unicode mapping after usage.
       512-character fonts are handled as well.

OPTIONS
       -8, -14, -16
	   Select font size for files in codepage format (.cp).

       -keep
	   Do not restore original font and unicode mapping. May be abbreviated to -k.

SEE ALSO
       console(4), setfont(8), showfont (no such manpage?).

BUGS
       Linux-specific; was not tested on non-i386 systems.
