It is not glamorous, but it is part of the plumbing that made bitmap font distribution and loading practical across architectures. ### Historique du projet The X.Org manpage carries MIT X Consortium and Open Group copyright notices from the 1990s and identifies Keith Packard as the author. The current upstream README describes bdftopcf as a font compiler whose output is portable across architectures while still allowing fast native reads on the architecture it was optimized for. Like many X11 utilities, bdftopcf moved through the modular X.Org era. The freedesktop GitLab tag history includes modular-copy and X.Org 7.0-era tags in 2005, followed by standalone bdftopcf 1.0.x and 1.1.x releases through bdftopcf-1.1.2 in 2024. ### Historique d'adoption bdftopcf is adopted wherever traditional X11 bitmap-font tooling is still packaged. The input package facts show it in Homebrew, Alpine, Fedora, MacPorts, Nix, and openSUSE packaging, reflecting its role as a compatibility and build utility rather than an end-user application. ### Modes d'utilisation The documented command takes a .bdf font and writes PCF to standard output or an output file. Options set glyph padding, scanline unit, bit order, byte order, terminal-font conversion, ink-metric handling, and output filename. ### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent bdftopcf is package-nerd significant because it is a surviving shard of the X11 bitmap font toolchain. Its value is mostly infrastructural: font packages, old X deployments, reproducible builds, and compatibility stacks need tiny tools like this to keep legacy formats buildable. ### Chronologie - 1990s: bdftopcf is part of the MIT X Consortium/Open Group X11 utility set. - 2001: The XFree86/X.Org manpage revisions document the tool and Keith Packard authorship. - 2005: X.Org modularization tags appear in the upstream history. - 2007: bdftopcf-1.0.1 appears as an early standalone util release. - 2024: bdftopcf-1.1.2 is tagged upstream on freedesktop GitLab. ### Related projects - BDF is the text bitmap font source format converted by the tool. - PCF is the compiled bitmap font format produced by the tool. - X.Org Server and the historical X font server are the consumers named by the upstream README and manpage. ### Sources - - - - source_facts.package-manager ## Notes de sécurité narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Risque Geiger:** vert / faible - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Détails de la base source - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** bdftopcf - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 0 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Autres enregistrements de gestionnaires de paquets - Nix - bdftopcf: normalized package name match | nixpkgs package indexes: pkgs/by-name/bd/bdftopcf/package.nix from https://api.github.com/repos/NixOS/nixpkgs/git/trees/master?recursive=1 - apk - bdftopcf - 1.1.2-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: bdftopcf from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | X.Org font utility | https://xorg.freedesktop.org/ - apk - bdftopcf-doc - 1.1.2-r0: normalized package name match | Alpine Linux edge package indexes: bdftopcf-doc from https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main/x86_64/APKINDEX.tar.gz | X.Org font utility (documentation) | https://xorg.freedesktop.org/ - dnf - bdftopcf - 1.1.2-6.fc45: normalized package name match | Fedora Rawhide package metadata: bdftopcf from https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Everything/x86_64/os/repodata/210a2053c8e007daf9ae39c2a21daaed9b2ddd07d63ecffa597050361e73650c-primary.xml.zst | Font compiler for the X server and font server | https://www.x.org - zypper - bdftopcf - 1.1.2-1.7: normalized package name match | openSUSE Tumbleweed package metadata: bdftopcf from https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/repodata/50b07339cb64c8ed4091bdbabddadc1ff5737b090e478818a195b40d8a3292861a879139b4a3987c31109699fde9fbf4a716367ddf4eef77da75f96e3193d6ed-primary.xml.zst | Font compiler for the X server and font server | http://xorg.freedesktop.org/ - MacPorts - bdftopcf: normalized package name match | MacPorts ports tree: x11/bdftopcf/Portfile from https://api.github.com/repos/macports/macports-ports/git/trees/master?recursive=1 ## Liens liés - [Terminal utility packages](https://pkg.so/fr/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Text processing packages](https://pkg.so/fr/text-processing-tools/) - Matched text, document, or structured-data processing metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://pkg.so/fr/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [Media and graphics packages](https://pkg.so/fr/media-graphics-tools/) - Matched media, image, audio, video, or graphics metadata. - [pkgconf](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/pkgconf/) - Build dependency declared by Homebrew. - [mkfontscale](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/mkfontscale/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, fonts, system, x11, xorg. - [xorg-server](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/xorg-server/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, x11, xorg. - [xinput](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/xinput/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, x11, xorg. - [xauth](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/xauth/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, x11, xorg. - [xkbcomp](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/xkbcomp/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, x11, xorg. - [libxcvt](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/libxcvt/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, x11, xorg. - [libxpm](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/libxpm/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, x11, xorg. - [xeyes](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/xeyes/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, system, x11, xorg. - [quartz-wm](https://pkg.so/fr/brew/quartz-wm/) - Local package facts share a topical domain.
