NAME

eikimaker — the Eiki font character generator utility for cotton

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

eikimaker is an interactive CLI utility written in Go that generates custom 6x8 pixel bitmap font characters for the cotton(1) ecosystem - despite the name, i incentivate anyone who may want to make their own font to use eikimaker as a means to do so!!

when used, eikimaker prompts the user for a target character and then proceduraly displays an 8 row grid as the user draws their character - when done, it then packs each row into a byte representation and it sends the result directly into an eikis.txt file.
