    The bdf2bmp utility creates a BMP-image-file containing
    all the glyph-images in a BDF-font-file.  That BMP file
    is a kind of Windows-type, 256 colors(8bitsPerPixel).

    bdf2bmp accepts command line options listed below:

    -s<number>
        This option specifies the width of spacing.

        default is 2.

    -c<number>
        This option specifies the number of columns in
