+mkpkfontdir is a tool for manipulating TeX directories and
+reorganizing them in various ways mimicking (after some
+transformations) the organization of your tfm files tree.
+
+mkpkfontdir can generate TDS trees, or mirror and flatten them for
+efficient recursive subdirectories searching (by making a pool of
+symbolic links that will be searched, for example). It has been
+successfully used in a modified MakeTeXPK, for instance, to put
+generated pk files at their "right" place in a structure hierarchy.
+
+It is also a great help for keeping consistency between the tfm and
+the pk trees, or simply for putting newly got pk files at their right
+place.
