console-tools NEW PACKAGE - replaces kbd package. console-tools is much nicer package, and the most important thing is that it allows 16bit ACM maps. I was quite disappointed to see what RH 5.2 shows on console when I choose CZ language, mc looks disgustingly, etc. So, I've created to new fonts, lat0-sun16 and lat2-sun16, which are compatible in look and feel with the builtin SUN8x16 kernel font, these fonts contain as many characters as possible for latin0/latin1/vtline and latin2/cp850/vtline. Provided is a iso15.acm and iso01.acm to be used with the former font (to get latin0 and latin1), plus iso02.acm to get latin2, additionally a hack iso02+euro.acm, which replaces the useless currency symbol with euro sign. Included are also updated sun keymaps to handle euro, plus two new keymaps, sunt5-us-cz and sunt5-cz-us. With this package, you're really Euro-ready on the console.
