sigma console fonts

The sigma console fonts are a set of UTF-8 fonts which provide readability and wide coverage. They include the "master" bdf file and screen font map (.sfm) files to control what goes into a particular 'psfu' font, so you can change the appearance of a glyph or create a selection specific to your needs. For many people, the 'general' map will cover your needs, but there are a number of other maps, including african, caucasian, cyrillic (primarily for all live languages using a cyrillic alphabet), and vietnamese. The bdf font itself is public domain, derived from etl16.
