+dosemu-fonts (fonts from dosemu, packaged for system-wide use)
+
+DOSEmu includes various VGA-style fonts, which get installed to a
+private directory, used only by DOSEmu. This package installs the same
+fonts in the system-wide /usr/share/fonts/misc directory, so other
+software can use them.
+
+These fonts are for codepages 437, 866, and 1125. ASCII text displays
+correctly with them, but they don't support Unicode or ISO-8859-*
+encodings. They're useful for applications such as BitchX (which uses
+codepage 437) and viewing old text files from MS-DOS.
+
+After the package is installed, you may have to run "xset fp rehash"
+to make the fonts available to X. You can get a list of the fonts
+with "xlsfonts -fn -dosemu-*". Also, there are short aliases, so you
+can run e.g. "xterm -fn vga11x19". These are: vga vga8x19 vga11x19
+vga10x24 vga12x30 vgacyr vga10x20 vga-ua vga10x20-ua.

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.
