makempx

MAKEMPX(1)						      General Commands Manual							MAKEMPX(1)

NAME

       makempx - typeset labels in MetaPost pictures with TeX or Troff

SYNOPSIS

       makempx [--tex|--troff] mpfile mpxfile

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.

       If mpxfile is older than mpfile, translate the labels from the MetaPost input file mpfile to low-level commands in MPXFILE, by running mpto
       -tex, tex, and dvitomp by default; or, if -troff is specified, mpto -troff, eqn -d$$ | troff -Tpost, and dmp.

       The current directory is used for writing temporary files.  Errors are left in mpxerr.{tex,log,dvi}.

       If the file named in $MPTEXPRE (mptexpre.tex by default) exists, it is prepended to the output in tex mode.

       makempx is typically called by mpost, not from the command line.

OPTIONS

       makempx accepts the following options:

       --help Print help message and exit.

       --tex  Assume input file contains TeX commands.

       --troff
	      Assume input file contains Troff commands.

       --version
	      Print version information and exit.

SEE ALSO

       mpost(1), mpto(1).
