# ft8
8x8 tty font utility. Includes some bmp image handling and scripts to generate resized variations of a joj font, for use in the linux console.
### joj fonts
jojft is an image format I made up. Basically, it stores 8x8 glyphs into 1 bit per pixel, totaling 64 bits per glyph.
The default font `lycon` is provided with this repo, both because it's a backup for my own font and to demonstrate usage:
```bash
ft8 8,16,24 ~/AR/ft8/lycon ~/AR/ft8/fonts
```
Outs 8x8, 16x16 and 24x24 versions of `lycon` to the `ARPATH` font directory.
For more information on how to work with `AR` packages, refer to the [avtomat](https://github.com/Liebranca/avtomat) repository, where the example script `AR-install` demonstrates it in detail.
# TODO
- frontend for jojft unpack
- dedicated jojft editor
