Description Michiel De Wilde 1999-09-11 16:20:00 UTC 
FreeBSD doesn't have a euro character when using syscons (pcvt neither,
but I'll leave that to someone else). Furthermore, the Belgian iso keymap
has some errors.

Fix: Well, it's all in this tarred gzipped uuencoded file. It provides:
  * a program to insert a euro character into a font
  * the euro sign itself, in 8x8, 8x14 and 8x16
  * how to adapt your keymap file to support the euro
  * a new Belgian iso keymap
How-To-Repeat: 
In a virtual console, type alt-e. You get an e, not a euro sign. Use the
Belgian keymap, activate caps lock and walk the keyboard. The 'm' will
show up in lowercase. More errors are described and corrected in the fix.

We have Euro symbols for some time now in the iso15-* fonts.
