+.SH NAME
+fontedit \- Edit fonts.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B fontedit file
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Fontedit
+is used to edit the down line reloadable character set (DRCS) of a VT220
+terminal. The editor has two display areas, one for displaying the
+entry currently being manipulated, and one for displaying the complete
+DRCS. Commands to the editor take the form of function keys.
+.PP
+.I Fontedit
+takes one command line parameter, a file name. This file is
+used to save the character set. If the file exists when \fIfontedit\fP
+is invoked, it is read in to initialize the DRCS. The file is written
+to when \fIfontedit\fP exits.
+.PP
+Commands to fontedit take the form of function keys. The current
+definitions are:
+.IP \fBHELP\fP
+Display a help screen.
+.IP \fBF6\fP
+Turn the pixel under the cursor on.
+.IP \fBF7\fP
+Turn the pixel under the cursor off.
+.IP \fBF13\fP
+Clear the display area.
+.IP \fBFind\fP
+Save the current font in the font table. Update the DRCS display.
+.IP \fBSelect\fP
+Extract the entry selected by the cursor in the DRCS display.
+.IP \fBPrev\fP
+Move the cursor to the previous entry in the DRCS display.
+.IP \fBNext\fP
+Move the cursor to the next entry in the DRCS display.
+.IP \fBInsert\fP
+Insert a blank line at the current cursor position. The bottom row is lost.
+.IP \fBRemove\fP
+Remove the row at the current cursor position. All rows below the
+current one are shifted up.
+.IP \fBCursors\fP
+Move the cursor in the main display area.
+.PP
+If the screen gets garbled, press <control-L>.
+.PP
+To exit \fIfontedit\fP, press <control-D>. The DRCS will be saved in
+\fIfile\fP. To exit without saving the DRCS, hit interrupt (usually
+DEL).
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+.I Fontedit
+will issue a warning when the entry being worked on is not saved, and
+some potentially destructive command, like \fBSelect\fP is used. To
+override the warning message, immediately reissue the command.
