NAME

xgfmerge - merges two Xgridfit program files

SYNOPSIS

xgfmerge [options] file-a file-b [...]

DESCRIPTION

Xgfmerge merges two or more Xgridfit program files, where file-a is a program generated automatically from an existing font using TTX and ttx2xgf, and file-b and any other files in the list contain other programming for the font. Xgfmerge outputs the merged programming to stdout. To capture the output in a file, use this syntax:


     $xgfmerge -o merged-file.xgf file-a.xgf file-b.xgf

Note: To merge Xgridfit instructions with those already in a font, the best method is now to run Xgridfit in merge-mode (option -m).

OPTIONS

-c
Look for a <default type="compile-globals"/> element in each file after the first in the list. If value="no" then ignore all <default>, <control-value>, <function>, <macro> and <pre-program> elements in the file.
-h
Display a help message.
-n
Merge <no-compile> elements from all files. <glyph> elements with duplicate "ps-name" attributes are ignored.
-o file
The file to write the output to. If this option is not used, output is written to stdout.
-p
When a <pre-program> element in a file other than file-a is available, use it instead of the one from file-a. If this option is not present, xgfmerge merges the programming in the <pre-program> of file-a with that in the <pre-program> of whichever file is being merged at the moment. The result is unlikely to be good if a single run of xgfmerge merges the contents of more than two <pre-program> elements.
-s
Sort <glyph> elements in the output file into alphabetical order.
-v
Verbose output: xgfmerge tells you what it is doing at each step.
-x
Resolve XIncludes before merging all files in the list except for file-a. Any XIncludes from file-a.xgf are stripped out of the files before this operation is performed. If XInclude is used to bring global elements (<control-value>, <function>, etc.) into these files, it is probably a good idea to use the -c option as well.

FILES

/usr/share/xml/xgridfit/util/merge.xsl
