### [psf2]
79+
80+
[psf2] is a minimal, unopinionated, no-std parser for the v2
81+
[PC Screen Font][psf2-format] bitmap font format.
82+
83+
PSF2 fonts are simple, compact, and readily available due to their use as Linux
84+
console fonts. They are extremely fast to draw at their intended resolution,
85+
making them a great choice to quickly get text on the screen, especially when a
86+
low-resolution, fixed-width aesthetic is desired.
87+
88+
The psf2 crate parses font data, exposing font size, glyph lookup, and iterators
89+
to traverse a glyph's bitmap for easy rendering. Due to its limited scope, it is
90+
much smaller and faster than conventional text rasterizers, but cannot support
91+
variable-width, anti-aliased, or shaped text.
