+
+Dina is a monospace bitmap font, primarily aimed at programmers. It is
+relatively compact to allow a lot of code on screen while clear enough
+to remain readable even at high resolutions.
+
+After the package is installed, X applications using fontconfig will be
+able to use the Dina fonts right away. To make them visible to old-style X
+apps (such as xterm), run "xset fp rehash" in your X session. After that,
+try e.g. "xterm -fn Dina_10" (Dina_6, Dina_8, Dina_9 are also available).
+
+Optionally, console fonts can be included in the package. To do this,
+install psftools before running this SlackBuild. To view the fonts, use
+e.g. "setfont Dina_10" (or Dina_6, Dina_8, Dina_9). To use as the system
+default, edit /etc/rc.d/rc.font and change the setfont line there. Don't
+forget that rc.font needs to be executable.
+
+Both the X11 and console fonts use the Windows-1252 character set
+(compatible with Latin-1).
