But is it possible to download other fonts from somewhere? I could put these into the /usr/share/wscons/fonts directory and could have a console that has smaller fonts at the end of the boot process.
Both TTF fonts and BDF fonts can be used if you convert them into WSFont format first. There are 2 utilities, bdfload & ttf2wsfont, available in /usr/xsrc/local/programs/ which'll do this--if you compile them first.
Would it be possible to use the spleen* fonts from within wscons? I think that would be possible.
Absolutely: $ tail -n6 /etc/wscons.conf # Change VT font font spleen 12 24 iso /usr/share/wscons/fonts/spleen-12x24.fnt setvar ttyE0 font spleen setvar ttyE1 font spleen setvar ttyE2 font spleen setvar ttyE3 font spleen $ -RVP
