NAME

       kpsetool - script to make teTeX-style kpsetool, kpsexpand, and kpsepath available

SYNOPSIS

       kpsetool  [ OPTIONS... ] COMMAND

       kpsexpand [ OPTIONS... ] STRING

       kpsepath  [ OPTIONS... ] PATHTYPE

DESCRIPTION

       kpsetool is a Bourne shell script that makes a teTeX-style kpsetool, kpsexpand, and kpsepath available.	kpsetool uses web2c's (new) kpsex-
       pand binary, so the syntax for kpsexpand is incompatible with teTeX's as of version 0.4.

OPTIONS

       -m mode
	      set Metafont mode

       -n progname
	      pretend to be progname to kpathsea

       -p     act like kpsepath(1)

       -v     act like kpsexpand(1)

       -w     act like kpsewhich(1)

NAME

       mft - translate Metafont or MetaPost code to TeX code for prettyprinting

SYNOPSIS

       mft [OPTIONS] mf_file_name[.mf|.mp]

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 mft program creates a TeX file from a Metafont or MetaPost program.	It takes appropriate care of typographic details like page  layout
       and the use of indentation, italics, boldface, etc., as illustrated in the book Computer Modern Typefaces.  Special conventions in Metafont
       and MetaPost comments allow you to control things that would not otherwise come out right; section 1 of the MFT source program in the Meta-
       fontware report explains these rules.

       The  mft  program uses an optional change file (which works just as the change files to tangle(1) and weave(1) do) and one or several style
       files (which are prepended to everything).  If no style file is specified, the style file plain.mft for Metafont (or mplain.mft	for  Meta-
       Post) is automatically used.

       The  mf_file_name, optional change_file_name, and style_file_name files are searched for using the MFINPUTS (for Metafont) or MPINPUTS (for
       MetaPost) and MFTINPUTS environment variables if you have set them, or else the corresponding system defaults.

       The output TeX file name is formed by using .tex in place of the extension of mf_file_name.

OPTIONS

       -change=change_file_name[.ch]
	      Apply the change file change_file_name to mf_file_name.

       -metapost
	      Assume mf_file_name is a MetaPost source file (this is the default if mf_file_name has the extension .mp).

       -style=style_file_name[.mft]
	      Use the style file style_file_name insted of plain.mft (or mplain.mft); this option can be given more than once.

FILES

       mftmac.tex
	      TeX macros used by mft output.

       plain.mft, mplain.mft
	      Default style files.

       cmbase.mft
	      Style file for Computer Modern.

AUTHORS

       Donald E. Knuth wrote the program, and he ported it to Unix with the help of Pierre MacKay and the Unix port of weave by Howard Trickey and
       Pavel Curtis.  The program is published in the Metafontware technical report, available from the TeX Users Group.
