XFE Unicode console font
The checked-in .hex.gz is the unmodified GNU Unifont 16.0.04 Plane 0 font source.
XFESystem selects SIL Open Font License 1.1 for this font and the generated
assets/branding/console/xfe-unicode.bin subset. The application and original
XFESystem ASCII drawings retain their own project licenses.

COPYING and OFL-1.1.txt are copied verbatim from that source archive. COPYING
includes the alternative GPL version 2 or later with the GNU font embedding
exception, as well as the licenses for upstream utilities and documentation;
those utilities are not embedded in XFESystem.

It checks the source hash before generating the subset. Covered characters include
CJK Unified Ideographs and Extension A, Chinese punctuation, fullwidth forms,
arrows, common Latin/Greek/Cyrillic, and the visible replacement glyph. UTF-8 input
outside the covered ranges uses one replacement glyph per Unicode scalar,
rather than one question mark per UTF-8 byte. Complex text shaping and a Chinese
input method are outside this first bilingual console implementation.
