`virmf' invocation
==================

  `virmf' is the "virgin" form of Metafont, which avoids the lengthy
initializations done by the "initial" (`ini') form, and is thus what is
generally used for production work.  Usually it is invoked under the
name `mf'.  For a detailed comparison of virgin and initial forms, see
Note: Initial and virgin.

  For a list of options and other information, see Note: mf
invocation.
