!!DESCRIPTION |

This manual page is not meant to be exhaustive. The complete |
| |
|
25 |
documentation for this version of TEX can be found in the |
| |
|
26 |
info file or manual ''Web2C: A TeX |
| |
|
27 |
implementation''. |

The __vftovp__ program translates a (program-oriented) |
| |
|
31 |
virtual font file and its accompanying TEX font metric file |
| |
|
32 |
to a (human-oriented) property list file. Thus, the virtual |
| |
|
33 |
font can be edited, and its exact contents can be displayed |
| |
|
34 |
mnemonically. It also serves as a VF-file validating |
| |
|
35 |
program; if no error messages are given, the input files are |
| |
|
36 |
correct. |
| |
|
37 |
|
| |
|
38 |
|
| |
|
39 |
The filenames are extended with the appropriate extension if |
| |
|
40 |
necessary. |
| |
|
41 |
!!OPTIONS |
| |
|
42 |
|
| |
|
43 |
|
| |
|
44 |
The argument ''format'' to __-charcode-format__ |
| |
|
45 |
specifies how character codes are output in the VPL file. By |
| |
|
46 |
default, only letters and digits are output using the |
| |
|
47 |
__C__ integer code (i.e., in ASCII); the others are |
| |
|
48 |
output in octal. (Unless the font's coding scheme starts |
| |
|
49 |
with __TeX math sy__ or __TeX math ex__, when all are |
| |
|
50 |
output in octal.) If ''format'' is __ascii__, all |
| |
|
51 |
character codes that correspond to graphic characters, |
| |
|
52 |
besides the left and right parentheses, are output in ASCII. |
| |
|
53 |
On the other hand, if ''format'' is __octal__, all |
| |
|
54 |
character codes are output in octal. |
| |
|
55 |
|
| |
|
56 |
|
| |
|
57 |
Without the __-verbose__ option, __vftovp__ operates |
| |
|
58 |
silently. With it, a banner and progress report are printed |
| |
|
59 |
on ''stdout''. |
| |
|
60 |
!!ENVIRONMENT |
| |
|
61 |
|
| |
|
62 |
|
| |
|
63 |
__vftovp__ looks for ''vf_name'' using the environment |
| |
|
64 |
variable VFFONTS. If that is not set, it uses the variable |
| |
|
65 |
TEXFONTS. If that is not set, it uses the system |
| |
|
66 |
default. |

Donald E. Knuth wrote the program, based in part on an idea |
| |
|
80 |
of David Fuchs, starting with the code for tftopl(1). |
| |
|
81 |
Karl Berry adapted it for compilation with |
| |
|
82 |
__web2c__. |
