The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
Bedstead is a family of outline fonts based on the characters produced by the Mullard SAA5050 series of Teletext Character Generators, as used to render the MODE 7 display on the BBC Microcomputer and other systems. The generator turns the original 5x9 pixel cells into smooth outlines, reproducing the diagonal-smoothing behaviour of the SAA5050 hardware. The family provides six width variants (from ultra condensed to extended), each in regular and bold weights, and covers Latin, Cyrillic and Hebrew glyphs plus the teletext mosaic graphics characters.
