Package: console-tools (1:0.2.3dbs-66)

Linux console and font utilities

This package allows you to set-up and manipulate the Linux console (ie. screen and keyboard), and manipulate console-font files.

`console-tools' was developed from version 0.94 of the standard `kbd' package, and integrates many fixes and enhancements, including new kbd features up to 0.99.

You will probably want to install a set of data files, such as the one in the `console-data' package.

For command-line compatibility with kbd, you may want to install the kbd-compat package.
