Manpages fmtutil\&.cnfSection: teTeX (5)Updated: October 2000 Index Return to Main Contents NAMEfmtutil.cnf - configuration file for fmtutilDESCRIPTIONThe fmtutil.cnf file contains the configuration information for fmtutil(8). Each line contains the name of the format (e.g., ``tex'', ``latex'', ``omega''), the name of the engine that uses that format (e.g., ``tex'', ``etex'', ``omega''), the pattern file (e.g., language.dat, language.def), and any arguments (name of an .ini file). Fields are separated by whitespace. A ``-'' can be used to indicate an empty field (only used in practice for the pattern-file field for the tex and amstex formats, which cannot be customized in this way.). Line can be commented out with ``#''. NOTESThe tex(1) and amstex(1) formats load hyphen.tex. No customization is available for these formats. You can, however, build customized formats on top of plain tex(1) or amstex(1) by using bplain.tex instead of plain.tex (see, for example, the bplain.ini file for the bplain format). etex(1) loads language.def, not language.dat. Symbolic links to the correct engines (e.g., bplain -> tex) are generated by the texlinks(8) script. Remember to run texlinks(8) if you run fmtutil(8) yourself, rather than using the FORMATS option in texconfig(8). FILES
