  x11-fonts/oldschool-pc-fonts: add new port

  PR:           212984
  Submitted by: matthew at reztek.cz

  The Ultimate Oldschool PC Font Pack started out with the idea of paying
tribute
  to ancient PCs and their bitmapped, pre-GUI typography (if you can call it
  that). It was inspired by similar efforts that cover other vintage machines:
  classic system fonts from the Amiga, C64, Apple II, Mac, ZX Spectrum,
  Atari 8-bit/ST etc. are all celebrated. On the other hand, the IBM PC and its
  clones seem to get little love... except for that one VGA text mode font
  (which has been remade numerous times, to varying degrees of success).

  This collection is here to remedy that, and to bring you pixel-perfect
remakes
  of various type styles from text-mode era PCs - in modern, multi-platform,
  Unicode-compatible TrueType form (plus straight bitmap versions).

  Although the goal is to make it a complete resource, the main focus is on
  hardware character sets: the kind that's located in a ROM chip on the system
  board or graphics card, which is what you'd see by default when working in
  text (or graphics) mode. Software-loadable fonts are also within the scope of
  this collection (if associated with a particular machine or display system),
  so some of these have also made it in.
