Subject: KC fonts and new .hbf files

The following font files are extracted from the .zip files
of the Kuo-Chiau package in ifcss.org:/software/dos/chinese-sys :

  394712 kcchin16.f00
  394712 kcchin16.f15
 1005376 kcchin24.f00
 1005376 kcchin24.f02
 1005376 kcchin24.f15

They contain 16x14 and 24x24 fantizi glyphs. Pretty good looking fonts!
(See the kc*.hbf files for detailed descriptions of the above font files.)
The files are now in ifcss.org:/incoming/kcfonts, and should be moved
to ifcss.org:/software/fonts.

Following is a list of the (full) .hbf files I have recently created.
They are available now in ifcss.org:/incoming/hbf, and should be moved
to ifcss.org:/software/fonts/HBF.
All .hbf files passed the scrutiny of hbf-check.sh by Yongguang Zhang.

KuoChiau (bitmap files available on ifcss.org)
kck24.hbf
kcm14.hbf	(usually, point size is measured by height rather than width)
kcm14j.hbf
kcm24.hbf
kcm24j.hbf

CCDOS (bitmap files available on ifcss.org)
ccfs24.hbf
cch24.hbf
cck24.hbf
ccs16.hbf
ccs24.hbf
ccs24f.hbf

ETen (bitmap files NOT available on ifcss.org)
etk24.hbf
etl24.hbf
etm15.hbf
etm24.hbf

With the addition of chinese16.hbf, Beijing16.hbf and Beijing24.hbf,
those .hbf files essentially cover all the hanzi bitmap files archived
on ifcss.org.  Bitmap files not explicitly referred by any .hbf
file are either padded, flipped, rotated or transformed versions of
those referred.  As more and more software support HBF, those "redundant"
space-consuming bitmap files can be gradually phased out.
