We could do another thing:

diff --git a/src/unicode_start b/src/unicode_start
index 82ef457..63c9967 100755
--- a/src/unicode_start
+++ b/src/unicode_start
@@ -83,7 +83,6 @@ case "$#" in
                 setfont "$1"
                 ;;
         0)
-               setfont "$DEFAULT_UNICODE_FONT"
                 ;;
         *)
                 echo "usage: unicode_start [font [unicode map]]"
---

Most distributions load own fonts after executing unicode_start. I 
think we can remove the setting of default font.

Without any arguments unicode_start will only set unicode mode and 
will not set font.

How about that?
