Can you suggest any large bitmap fonts for use in terminals? I find them much cleaner than antialiased (i.e., blurred) fonts. By "large", I mean that they are readable on a hidpi monitor without scaling. Thus at least of size 24 pixels, hopefully larger. So far the only one that I know is Terminus, which is not particularly beautiful.

Closest I can come is ttyp0: https://people.mpi-inf.mpg.de/~uwe/misc/uw-ttyp0/ https://people.mpi-inf.mpg.de/~uwe/misc/uw-ttyp0/ It goes up to 22px and is quite attractive. You can also use bdfscale to blow up an X11 bitmap font, but will have to contend with the larger pixels: https://github.com/philj56/bdfscale https://github.com/philj56/bdfscale Alternatively, use a TTF/OTF "bitmap font" and scale it an integer multiple of its actual height. The fonts in the Ultimate Oldschool PC Font Pack are good for this: https://int10h.org/oldschool-pc-fonts/ https://int10h.org/oldschool-pc-fonts/
