NAME

loadunimap − load the kernel unicode-to-font mapping table

SYNOPSIS

loadunimap [ −C console ] [ −o oldmap ] [ 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The loadunimap command is obsolete – its function is now built-in into setfont(8).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.

If the -o oldmap option is given, the old map is saved in the file specified.

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).

FILES

/usr/lib/kbd/unimaps

The default directory for unicode mappings.

/usr/lib/kbd/unimaps/def.uni
