Unifont 11.0.03 Released

[Paul Hardy]

GNU Unifont 11.0.03 is now available.

Unifont provides fonts with a glyph for each printable code point in
the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane, as well as wide coverage of the
Supplemental Multilingual Plane and some ConScript Unicode Registry
glyphs.

The Unifont package includes TrueType fonts for all of these ranges,
and BDF and PCF fonts for the Unicode Basic Multilingual Plane.  There
is also a specialized PSF font for using GNU APL in console mode on
GNU/Linux systems.

The web page for this project is https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/unifont/.

You can download the latest version from GNU mirror sites, accessible
at http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/unifont/unifont-11.0.03.  If the mirror
