NAME

       feynmf - Process LaTeX files using FeynMF

SYNOPSIS

       feynmf [-hvqncfT] [-t tfm [-t tfm ...]] [-m mode]
	      file [file ...]

       feynmf [--help] [--version] [--quiet] [--noexec] [--clean]
	      [--force] [--notfm] [--tfm tfm [--tfm tfm ...]]
	      [--mode mode] file [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

       The most complicated part of using the FeynMF style appears to be the proper invocation of Metafont.  The feynmf script provides a
       convenient front end and will automagically invoke Metafont with the proper mode and magnification.  It will also avoid cluttering system
       font directories and offers an option to clean them.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
	   Print a short help text.

       -v, --version
	   Print the version of feynmf.

       -q, --quiet
	   Don't echo the commands being executed.

       -n, --noexec
	   Don't execute LaTeX or Metafont.

       -c, --clean
	   Offer to delete font files that have accidentally been placed in a system directory by the MakeTeXTFM and MakeTeXPK scripts (these
	   scripts are run by tex (and latex) in the background).  This option has only been tested with recent versions of UNIX TeX.

       -f, --force
	   Don't ask any questions.

       -T, --notfm
	   Don't try to prepare fake ".tfm" files for the first run.

       -t, --tfm tfm
	   Don't try guess the names of the ".tfm" files to fake for the first run and use the given name(s) instead.  This option can be useful
	   if our incomplete parsing of the LaTeX input files fails.

       -m mode, --mode mode
	   Select the METAFONT mode mode.  The default is guessed or "localfont" if the guess fails.

       file
	   Main LaTeX input files.

       file ...
	   Other LaTeX input files that are included by the main file.

BUGS

       The preparation of ".tfm" files is not foolproof yet, because we can parse TeX files only superficially.

       This script has only been tested for recent teTeX distributions of UNIX TeX, though it will probably work with other versions of UNIX TeX.
       The author will be grateful for portability suggestions, even concerning Borg operating systems, for the benefit of those users that are
       forced to live with DOS or Windows.

NAME

       tftopl - convert TeX font metric (tfm) files to property lists

SYNOPSIS

       tftopl [OPTIONS] tfm_name[.tfm] [pl_name[.pl]]

DESCRIPTION

       This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive.	The complete documentation for this version of TeX can be found in the info file or manual
       Web2C: A TeX implementation.

       The tftopl program translates a (program-oriented) font metric file to a (human-oriented) property list file.  Thus, you can edit the  con-
       tents  of  the  TFM files, if the font designer has not done his or her job properly, or if you're encountering strange difficulties, or if
       you're just curious.  It also serves as a TFM-file validating program, i.e., if no error messages are given, the input file is correct.

       The pl_name is extended with .pl if it lacks a suffix.  If pl_name is not given, standard output is used. Likewise,  tfm_name  is  extended
       with  .tfm  if  it  lacks a suffix.  Also, path searching is done for the TFM file using the environment variable TEXFONTS.  If that is not
       set, tftopl uses the system default.

       See tex(1) for the details of the searching.

OPTIONS

       -charcode-format=format
	      The argument format specifies how character codes are output in the PL file.  By default, only letters and digits are  output  using
	      the  C  integer  code (i.e., in ASCII); the others are output in octal.  (Unless the font's coding scheme starts with TeX math sy or
	      TeX math ex, in which case all character codes are output in octal.)  If format is ascii, all character  codes  that  correspond	to
	      graphic  characters,  besides the left and right parentheses, are output in ASCII.  Finally, if format is octal, all character codes
	      are output in octal.

       -verbose
	      Without this option, tftopl operates silently.  With it, a banner and progress report are printed on stdout.
