Ethiopic fonts:

o  All fonts contain 353 Ethiopic characters which extends the Unicode
     specification by 7 characters (extras are relegated to the private use
     range).

o  Contain their own Unicode mapping table corresponding to "ethiopic.uni"
     which should be in your "consoletrans" directory.

o  Sizes 14 & 16 are prefixed by 159 Latin characters from iso01.f14 &
     iso01.f16.  Size 12 fonts borrow Latin characters from lat1-12.psf.
