I agree that a cryptic error message is unacceptable.

However, in the case of just stopping upon ENDCHAR the result with a 13 row
.bdf will still be a 16x8 .fnt font that has the final 3 rows empty. This is
probably not what is desired.

I've attached a patch that might be part of the solution - reading the heig=
ht
and width from the BBX entry in the font.

It doesn't fully work with koi8x13.bdf because most glyphs are 13x8 but the=
re
is one 9x6 and one 13x9.
