PKTYPE(1) General Commands Manual PKTYPE(1)NAME
pktype - verify and translate a packed font bitmap file to plain text
SYNOPSIS
pktype pk_file[pk]
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 pktype program translates a packed font file (pk) (output by, for example, gftopk(1) to a file that humans can read. It also serves as
a pk file-validating program (i.e., if pktype can read it, it's correct) and as an example of a pk-reading program for other software that
wants to read pk files.
The input pk_file on the command line may omit the suffix `pk. The plain text translation is always written to standard output.
The output file gives a compact encoding of the packed encoding, using conventions described in the source code. Run lengths of black pix-
els alternate with parenthesized run lengths of white pixels, and brackets are used to indicate when a row should be repeated.
ENVIRONMENT
pktype looks for pk_file in the usual places according to Kpathsea.
See tex(1) for the details of the searching.
SEE ALSO dvitype(1), gftopk(1), gftype(1).
Donald E. Knuth et al., Metafontware.
AUTHORS
Tomas Rokicki wrote the program, Donald E. Knuth originally ported it to Unix, Pierre MacKay originally adapted it for compilation with
Web2c.

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.

Greetings,
I'm trying to delete a file with a weird name from within Terminal on a Mac.
It's a very old file (1992) with null characters in the name: ââWord FinderÂŽ Plusâ˘.
Here are some examples of what I've tried:

Hi all...
Well guys and gals, I jumped in at the deep end and found things that PERL cannot do by default.
Many tricky terminal escape codes are not catered for so I had to create workarounds.
One thing I searched for was this:

Well, guys I saw a question about GOTO for Python.
So this gave me the inspiration to attempt a GOTO function for 'dash', (bash and ksh too).

This is purely a fun project to see if it is possible in PURE... (3 Replies)
