NAME
loadunimap - load the kernel unicode-to-font mapping table
SYNOPSIS
loadunimap
[,options/]
[,map/]
DESCRIPTION
The
loadunimap
command is obsolete - its function is now built-in into
setfont(8).
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
mapping table is assumed.
The default extension (that can be omitted) is
.uni.
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(8).
OPTIONS
- -o, --output=,FILE/
-
save the old map to the FILE.
- -C, --console=,DEV/
-
the console device to be used.
- -V, --version
-

- -h, --help
-
print this usage message.
FILES
- /usr/share/unimaps
-
The default directory for unicode mappings.
- /usr/share/unimaps/def.uni
-
The default mapping file.
