hexfont: 'GNU Unifont' Hex Fonts
Contains most of the hex font files from the 'GNU Unifont Project' <https://unifoundry.com/unifont/> compressed by 'xz'. 'GNU Unifont' is a duospaced bitmap font that attempts to cover all the official Unicode glyphs plus several of the artificial scripts in the '(Under-)ConScript Unicode Registry' <https://www.kreativekorp.com/ucsur/>. Provides a convenience function for loading in several of them at the same time as a 'bittermelon' bitmap font object for easy rendering of the glyphs in an 'R' terminal or graphics device.
