having finally come to grips with how fontinst does its stuff, I'm
planning to set up a batch job to set up an obscene amount of PS fonts
to the new encoding scheme.
the remaining problem is to create the new psfonts.map file. once a
long time ago I asked if fontinst could be made to write out a suitable
psfonts.map entry as it went along, but that would tie it too closely to
dvips, I was informed. and I'm sure there still are people around who
use dvitps, dvi2ps, or even dvihplj (actually, that's what most people
including the Germans do, they say).
anyway, so I thought I'd write a program to do it. but has anybody
already done this? written _something_ to automate the generation of
psfonts.map entries?
