The complete +documentation for this version of \*(TX can be found in the info file +or manual +.IR "Web2C: A TeX implementation" . +.PP +The +.B mft +program creates a \*(TX file from a \*(MF program. +It takes appropriate care of typographic details like page +layout and the use of indentation, italics, boldface, etc., as illustrated +in the book +.IR "Computer Modern Typefaces" . +Special conventions in \*(MF comments allow you to control things that +would not otherwise come out right; section 1 of the MFT source program +in the +.I \*(MFware +report explains these rules. +.PP +The command line has one required file name and two optional file names. +The required +one is a \*(MF source file; there is also an optional change file +(which works just as the change files to +.BR tangle (1) +and +.BR weave (1) +do) +and an optional style file (which is prepended to everything). +.PP +A file name that doesn't contain a dot is always given an extension, +either +.I .mf +(\*(MF) or +.I .ch +(change) or +.I .mft +(style). If no style file is specified, the style file +.I plain.mft +is automatically used. The +.I change_file_name +is not searched for using any paths. The +.I .mf +file is searched for using the MFINPUTS environment variable if you +have set it, or else the system default. The style file is searched +for using the TEXINPUTS environment variable. See +.BR tex (1) +for the details of the searching. +.PP +The output \*(TX file name is formed by using +.I .tex +in place of the extension of +.IR mf_file_name . +.\"===================================================================== +.SH OPTIONS +Specify command-line options +.B \-c +to suppress the reading of a change file, and +.B \-s +to suppress the reading of a style file. +.\"===================================================================== +.SH FILES +.TP +.I mftmac.tex +\*(TX macros used by +.B mft +output. +.TP +.I plain.mft +Default style file. +.TP +.I cmbase.mft +Style file for Computer Modern. +.\"===================================================================== +.SH "SEE ALSO" +.BR mf (1), +.BR weave (1). +.br +Donald E.
