The
<filename>.fnt
</filename> suffix is used quite frequently. I suspect that whenever someone wanted to create a specialized font file for their application, more often than not they chose this suffix. Therefore, it is likely that files with this suffix are not all the same format; specifically, the
<filename>.fnt
</filename> files used by syscons under FreeBSD may not be the same format as a
<filename>.fnt
</filename> one encounters in the
<trademark class="registered">MS-DOS
</trademark>/
<trademark class="registered">Windows
</trademark> environment. I have not made any attempt at using other
<filename>.fnt
</filename> files other than those provided with FreeBSD.
