Cozette is a full font with a lot of unicode glyphs, but it would be amazing if there were a paired down version for use in the actual linux console where cozette would really shine. As is, attempting to use cozette (.psf version) in the console returns an error setfont: ERROR kdfontop.c:211 put_font_kdfontop: ioctl(KDFONTOP): Invalid argument, presumably due to all the extra (unicode?) glyphs. I've been trying to look into hacking together a psfu of cozette but it's not the right time for me and might be a trivial endeavor for the devs! Console cozette would be a blast.

this would be nice! trying to repackage this for void linux after the previous maintainer left and it would be a nice addition! not sure exactly what it looks like to make a tty font but would be appreciated.

realized this is already mentioned in a few other issues. i was considering adding a bdf2psf step in the void package template but it feels like it makes more sense to come from upstream and you seem to have already acknowledged that so take your time with it.

Note to self: there's a psf-cozette AUR package that seems to handle this neatly.
