I suggest you get a book about shell programming (my suggestion, as always, is Barry Rosenbergs "Hands-On KornShell93 Programming"). It will not work to try and teach you this over the internet because this is beyond the scope of this forum.

For the same reason i think the solution to your mentioned problem will in no way help you. If you want to learn shell scripting you should do it yourself (otherwise there will be no learning effect) and if you just need examples for scripting: the internet is full of them and you surely can google yourself, no?

I hope this helps.

feynmf

FEYNMF(1)						    Contributed LaTeX Utilities 						 FEYNMF(1)

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.

AUTHOR

       Thorsten Ohl <Thorsten.Ohl@Physik.TH-Darmstadt.de>

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.
