Fonts supported by that terminal

Most of these fonts are Public Domain, and come from X11. Exceptions are listed.

This lists the coverage of each font.

This page has the information embedded in images, rendered using each font. In those images, white denotes glyphs that are supported fully. Brown (darker color) denotes glyphs that are supported only through approximation, such as by removing accents.

Font 4x5

X11 font “micro”. For clarity, this font is pictured as 4x6 on this page by inserting a blank pixel line below every character, but the font is really 4x5. This means that capital letters on adjacent lines are touching.

Besides the full ASCII, this font includes an odd set of special characters, including ẍ, some Greek symbols, logical operators, and the APL asterisk with diearesis that I have never seen used anywhere, for a total of 128 glyphs.
