BDF scaling support #2603

Versions

ConEmu build: 230724 stable x64
OS version: Windows 10 x64
Used shell version (Far Manager, git-bash, cmd, powershell, cygwin, whatever): Far Manager

Problem description

BDF font is only available in fixed (original) size. This may be too tiny on high resolution screen modes. Non-bitmap fonts are scalable, but hard to get rid from blurring. It's better to display good bitmap font directly than scale bitmap font converted to TTF and blurred somewhere on this long road.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Drop some BDF font into ConEmu folder, e.g. UniVGA
  2. Select this BDF as main font in ConEmu
  3. Try to select alternative text cell size, height and width
  4. Save settings

Actual results

Text cell size remains strictly fixed, determined by raster font size

Expected results

At least some scaling by factor is desired. Text cell size settings are expected to be disabled if size settings have no effect.

Additional files

bdfscale script thankfullly provides some workaround
