gemfedit - a very basic Atari font editor
Written by Thorsten Otto <admin@tho-otto.de>
All the code is covered by the GPL (see COPYING for details).
contents
--------
tos the source for the editor, and a simple viewer
unix the source for a simple viewer, using X11
win32 the source for a simple viewer, using win32
fonts/tos Atari ST original system fonts (dumped from TOS ROM into
FNT format using this tool)
fonts/emutos System fonts in different encodings, used by EmuTOS
for certain languages
fonts/gem Some GEM fonts taken from http://www.deltasoft.com/downloads-gemworld.htm,
for testing the byte-swapped format. Not all of them can be displayed.
tools fnt2bdf.c: a small tool to convert font files to BDF; adapted from STonX
Known bugs:
- horizontal offset tables are not handled
- Width & height of the cells, as well as the number of characters
cannot be changed once a font is loaded. You can export them to a txt
file, edit that and import it back again to achieve that.
- Only the first 256 characters in a font are displayed (reading &
writing works, though; also i haven't found any fonts yet that
have more characters)
- Compressed fonts from GEM can be loaded, but are saved as uncompressed
