The TeX Directory Structure (TDS) standard, available at
(<a href="http://tug.org/tds">http://tug.org/tds</a> and <samp><var>CTAN:</var>/tds</samp>) specifies a
directory tree for all TeX library files.  The directory names
given in <a href="Suppliers.html#Suppliers">Suppliers</a> and <a href="Typefaces.html#Typefaces">Typefaces</a> are intended to mesh with
that standard.

</li><li> <a name="index-modes_002emf"></a>
The <samp>modes.mf</samp> file (<a href="ftp://tug.org/tex/modes.mf">ftp://tug.org/tex/modes.mf</a>)
