What font does the framebuffer use?

I really like the generic, default font that is used in the framebuffer, but now that I have to use Mac OS X for development, and I'm permanently wedded to emacs, I'm finding it a huge pain to use the fonts they have. What font does the framebuffer use, so that I might set it as my default in Terminal?
 
What framebuffer? There is no frambuffer in freebsd.
Console fonts are in /usr/share/syscons/fonts
(i'm not sure if default font isn't build in, but I think it is)
 
I see a lot of .fnt files, but I'd rather not go through the trouble of converting all that to ttf. Does it have a name, or was it created just for this purpose, and called "the default console font?"

FreeBSD != OS-X

You can probably get better OS-X help here: http://www.macosxhints.com/
 
What typeface? You haven't really made it clear which font you mean.

The console fonts are bitmapped fonts, not TTF.
