Description
hexdraw reads a sorted GNU Unifont .hex file from STDIN and writes a two dimensional ASCII art rendering
for each glyph to STDOUT. The output file can be edited with any text editor, then converted back into a
.hex file. Unifont ASCII hexadecimal glyphs are 16 pixels high and can be 8, 16, 24, or 32 pixels wide.
Files
