How to configure various terminals for teletext display.

A ttf teletext font can be found in this repository in the misc folder. Normally it can installed by putting it in ~/.local/share/fonts/.

alacritty -o 'font.normal.family="teletext2.ttf"' -o 'font.size=15' -o 'window.dimensions.columns=43' -o 'window.dimensions.lines=27'

To install the PCF font:

sudo apt-get install tv-fonts

Then enable bitmap fonts in your X server:

cd /etc/fonts/conf.d
sudo rm 70-no-bitmaps.conf
sudo ln -s ../conf.avail/70-yes-bitmaps.conf .
xset fp rehash

Now you can use the teletext font in the following terminals:

urxvt -fg white -bg black -fn teletext -fb teletext -j -ss +sb -sbg -title Teletext +ls -geometry 43x27
