    <a 
  name="index34-73001"></a>TeX4ht consults this file for system-dependent information. The file consists of a sequence of directives, where
each directive occupies a line and is identified with a distinguished character code in the first column. The following
are the possible character codes and their meaning.
<dl >
    <dt>b</dt><dd>
This character identifies for <span class="cmtt-10">tex4ht </span>a comment to be placed in the &#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">.lg</span>&#8217; file, before the <a 
 href="mn38.html#bsc"  name="bsc-1">scripts</a> for creating pictures
for symbols.
    </dd><dt>g</dt><dd>
<a 
  name="index34-73002"></a>This character identifies the extension tex4ht should associate to names of the files of pictures the
postprocessor requests (for instance, bitmap files of glyphs.). The default corresponds to a setting of the form
&#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">g.png</span>&#8217;.
<!--l. 8153--><p class="indent" >    An extension name can also be encoded into tex4ht during compilation time through the variable
<a 
 href="mn37.html#x-LGTYP"  name="LGTYP">LGTYP</a>.
</p><!--l. 8157--><p class="indent" >    Alternatively, an extension can be provided in the command line of tex4ht, in which case the character code
should be present and immediately preceded by a &#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">-</span>&#8217; character.
</p>
    </dd><dt>i</dt><dd>
This character identifies to <span class="cmtt-10">tex4ht </span>a directory <a

This character identifies to <span class="cmtt-10">tex4ht </span>a <a 
 href="mn38.html#sc"  name="sc-1">command</a> for requesting in the <span class="cmtt-10">lg </span>file the translation of dvi pictures to
bitmaps. When needed, a sequence of such commands can be placed in consecutive lines to form a block of
commands for handling the translation.

    </dd><dt>S</dt><dd>
This character specifies what security measures <span class="cmtt-10">t4ht </span>should take when invoking other utilities. In the absence of
this directive, all the calls to system services are ignored. On the other hand, a directive of the form &#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">S*</span>&#8217; allows all
system calls. A selective access to system calls can be obtained with <span class="cmtt-10">S </span>directives, which specify the prefixes of
command names that should be allowed to go through.
<!--l. 8428--><p class="indent" >    The <span class="cmtt-10">S </span>directives can be fed as switches to the command lines <span class="cmtt-10">t4ht</span>.

A variant of he <span class="cmtt-10">S </span>switch for <span class="cmtt-10">tex4ht</span>. Rarely useful.

    </dd><dt>X</dt><dd>
This character identifies to <span class="cmtt-10">t4ht </span>a script for postprocessing the files which <span class="cmtt-10">tex4ht </span>outputs. The file names are
represented by &#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">%%1</span>&#8217;, and their extensions by &#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">%%2</span>&#8217;. Such scripts, for instance, may invoke validators to check the
correctness of the files against given DTD&#8217;s and request XSL transformations.
<!--l. 8441--><p class="indent" >    The command line of <span class="cmtt-10">t4ht </span>may include a flag &#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">-X</span>&#8217; whose content is represented by &#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">%%3</span>&#8217; in the

A variant of the X script applied to files whose extension names are provided after the dot. The file names are
represented by &#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">%%1</span>&#8217;, and the jobnames by &#8216;<span class="cmtt-10">%%0</span>&#8217;.

assumed.
