It was\ndesigned for readability and long work in a terminal. It's one of the very few\nsans-serif monospace fonts. Leggie is available in the following sizes:\n\n - 6x12 px\n - 9x14 px (EGA-style bold only)\n - 9x16 px (VGA-style bold only)\n - 9x18 px\n - 12x24 px\n\nand styles:\n\n - Normal\n - Bold\n - Italic\n - Bold italic.\n\nI think leggie is more readable than Terminus, because the letters are slightly\nshorter, resulting in a bit more inter-line space (while still giving you the\nsame number of lines).\n\nThere is a good selection of glyphs available:\n\n - ASCII\n - ISO 8859-{1,2,3,4,5,7,8,9,10,13,14,15,16}\n - IPA\n - Microsoft WGL4\n - VT100 graphics\n - Common block drawing graphics\n - Symbols from the default VGA font (a.k.a. Codepage 437)\n - Some mathematics\n - Powerline\n - Nice punctuation\n - Braille (3- and 4-row)\n - ಠ_ಠ\n - ...\n\nOverall, all living European languages and some Asian languages are supported.\nCurrently supported scripts are: Armenian, Cyrillic, Georgian (Mkhedruli),\nHebrew, Latin (including Vietnamese and Pinyin).\n\nI am always interested in adding new glyphs, so please let me know if there are\nany characters/languages that you need and I will try to add them.\n\nBold and italic\n---------------\n\nThe extra styles are still being tested and for now only contain the glyphs from\nthe ISO 8859 charsets (all supported parts).\n\nPatches\n-------\n\nVersion 0.1707.2 introduced optional patches. Look in the patches directory and\nif you see anything you like, just apply them: patch \u003c patches/your.patch.\n\nPlease send me your patches to \u003cw@kerr.sh\u003e. Make sure to include your name,\nemail address, and a list of glyphs you've changed.\n\nLinux console fonts (PSF)\n-------------------------\n\nVersion 2.1651 introduced support for generating Linux console fonts. Just run\nmake psf. Make sure to have the bdf2psf program installed, it's available in\nmost popular distributions and from\nhttps://packages.debian.org/sid/all/bdf2psf/download.\n\nInstalling\n----------\n\nTo only install the BDFs, run make installbdf. By default it installs to\n/usr/share/fonts. If you want to install to a custom directory, e.g. ~/.fonts,\nrun make BDFDEST=~/.fonts installbdf.\n\nTo install the PSFs, run make installpsf. By default it installs to\n/usr/share/consolefonts. Similar to the above, you can pass PSFDEST to install\nto a custom directory.\n\nTo install both, run make install. You can still pass BDFDEST and PSFDEST.\n\nLegal\n-----\n\nLeggie is Copyright 2012-2018 Wiktor Kerr.\nLicensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY).\nPlease see the LICENCE file or https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fwikkyk%2Fleggie","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fwikkyk%2Fleggie","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fwikkyk%2Fleggie/lists"}
