ALBATROSS(1) General Commands Manual ALBATROSS(1)
NAME
albatross - a tool for finding fonts that contain a given (Unicode)
glyph.
SYNOPSIS
albatross [options] glyphs...
DESCRIPTION
albatross is a command line tool for finding fonts that contain a given
(Unicode) glyph. It relies on Fontconfig, a library for configuring
and customizing font access.
Albatross takes a list of glyphs as input. Three formats are sup-
ported:
#1 The glyph itself, e.g., ß (Eszett). Internally, the tool con-
verts it to the corresponding Unicode code point.
#2 The glyph as a Unicode code point in the hexadecimal notation,
e.g., 0xDF. The 0x prefix is mandatory. Note that the tool
takes the value as case insensitive, e.g., 0xDF is equal to 0xdf
(or any case combination thereof).
#3 The glyph as a Unicode code point using the multiset union nota-
tion, e.g, U+DF. The U+ prefix is mandatory. Be mindful that
this notation expects an uppercase U.
