+Rebuild and manage TeX formats, Metafont bases and MetaPost mems.
.PP
-\fICOMMAND\fP is one of:
+If the command name ends in mktexfmt, only one format can be created.
+The only options supported are \fB\-\-help\fR and \fB\-\-version\fR, and the command
+line must consist of either a format name, with its extension, or a
+plain name that is passed as the argument to \fB\-\-byfmt\fR (see below). The
+full name of the generated file (if any) is written to stdout, and
+nothing else.
.PP
+If not operating in mktexfmt mode, the command line can be more general,
+and multiple formats can be generated, as follows.

+.SH ENVIRONMENT
+.PP
+Explanation of trees and files normally used:
+.IP
+If \fB\-\-cnffile\fR is specified on the command line (possibly multiple
+times), its value(s) are used. Otherwise, fmtutil reads all the
+fmtutil.cnf files found by running `kpsewhich \fB\-all\fR fmtutil.cnf', in the
+order returned by kpsewhich.
+.IP
+In any case, if multiple fmtutil.cnf files are found, all the format
+definitions found in all the fmtutil.cnf files are merged.
+.IP
+Thus, if fmtutil.cnf files are present in all trees, and the default
+layout is used as shipped with TeX Live, the following files are
+read, in the given order.
+.nf
+.IP
+For fmtutil\-sys:
+TEXMFSYSCONFIG \fI\,$TEXLIVE/YYYY/texmf\-config/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+TEXMFSYSVAR \fI\,$TEXLIVE/YYYY/texmf\-var/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+TEXMFLOCAL \fI\,$TEXLIVE/texmf\-local/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+TEXMFDIST \fI\,$TEXLIVE/YYYY/texmf\-dist/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+.IP
+For fmtutil:
+TEXMFCONFIG $HOME/.texliveYYYY/texmf\-config/web2c/fmtutil.cnf
+TEXMFVAR $HOME/.texliveYYYY/texmf\-var/web2c/fmtutil.cnf
+TEXMFHOME \fI\,$HOME/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+TEXMFSYSCONFIG \fI\,$TEXLIVE/YYYY/texmf\-config/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+TEXMFSYSVAR \fI\,$TEXLIVE/YYYY/texmf\-var/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+TEXMFLOCAL \fI\,$TEXLIVE/texmf\-local/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+TEXMFDIST \fI\,$TEXLIVE/YYYY/texmf\-dist/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+.IP
+(where YYYY is the TeX Live release version).
+.fi
+.IP
+According to the actions, fmtutil might write to one of the given files
+or create a new fmtutil.cnf, described further below.
+.PP
+Where changes are saved:
+.IP
+If config files are given on the command line, then the first one
+given will be used to save any changes from \fB\-\-enable\fR or \fB\-\-disable\fR.
+If the config files are taken from kpsewhich output, then the
+algorithm is more complex:
+.IP
+1) If \fI\,$TEXMFCONFIG/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP or \fI\,$TEXMFHOME/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP
+appears in the list of used files, then the one listed first by
+kpsewhich \fB\-\-all\fR (equivalently, the one returned by kpsewhich
+fmtutil.cnf), is used.
+.IP
+2) If neither of the above two are present and changes are made, a
+new config file is created in \fI\,$TEXMFCONFIG/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP.
+.IP
+In general, the idea is that if a given config file is not writable, a
+higher\-level one can be used. That way, the distribution's settings
+can be overridden for system\-wide using TEXMFLOCAL, and then system
+settings can be overridden again for a particular using using TEXMFHOME.
+.PP
+Resolving multiple definitions of a format:
+.IP
+If a format is defined in more than one config file, then the definition
+coming from the first\-listed fmtutil.cnf is used.
+.PP
+Disabling formats:
+.IP
+fmtutil.cnf files with higher priority (listed earlier) can disable
+formats mentioned in lower priority (listed later) fmtutil.cnf files by
+writing, e.g.,
+.IP
+#! <fmtname> <enginename> <hyphen> <args>
+.IP
+in the higher\-priority fmtutil.cnf file.
+.IP
+As an example, suppose you have want to disable the luajitlatex format.
+You can create the file \fI\,$TEXMFCONFIG/web2c/fmtutil.cnf\/\fP with the content
+.IP
+#! luajitlatex luajittex language.dat,language.dat.lua lualatex.ini
+.IP
+and call fmtutil.

-This manual page was written by C\&.M\&. Connelly
-<c@eskimo\&.com>, for
-the Debian GNU/Linux system and later slightly adapted for the teTeX 3 release\&.
+fmtutil vs. fmtutil\-sys (fmtutil \fB\-\-sys\fR):
+.IP
+When fmtutil\-sys is run or the command line option \fB\-\-sys\fR is used,
+TEXMFSYSCONFIG and TEXMFSYSVAR are used instead of TEXMFCONFIG and
+TEXMFVAR, respectively. This is the primary difference between
+fmtutil\-sys and fmtutil.
+.IP
+Other locations may be used if you give them on the command line, or
+these trees don't exist, or you are not using the original TeX Live.
