Re: Console Font for Lower Vision People



Hello,

D.J.J. Ring, Jr., le mar. 07 janv. 2020 10:15:18 -0500, a ecrit:

The name suggests a 32pixel font. As documented on
https://wiki.debian.org/accessibility#Console_fonts , the
Debian-installer Terminus font has a 32x16 size option.

This is already available in dpkg-reconfigure console-setup, you just
need to choose the Terminus font, and you will be able to choose 16x32.

This is discussed in bug #595696 (see
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=595696 ). It's a
matter of someone taking the time to do it.
