Description Martin 2018-09-08 12:03:42 UTC 
Created attachment 196958 [details]
copied and edited INDEX.fonts file

Playing around with the vidfont tool, i saw, that there is no INDEX.fonts file in /usr/share/vt/fonts. This file delivers some additional information in the vidfont interface.

So i copied the file from /usr/share/syscons/fonts/ and edited it, to match the existing fonts in /usr/share/vt/fonts. In my tests this worked for english and german. The other languages are copied and might not be correct.

We can omit the "ISO 8859-1 National Character Set FAQ" from the copy. I'll submit a request to re@ to commit a version of your patch, limited to just the ones that are known good (English and German) and also unique.

I will add the Makefile change.
