DESCRIPTION
defoma-subst
is a tool to create/edit a rulefile of Defoma font substitution system.
This system makes a certain font provide an user-specified id. Rulefile
exists in order not only to specify such ids but also to have more similar
fonts containing same characters substitute for the id.
Following is the form of rulefile.
# comment..
# comment..
Helvetica --GeneralFamily SansSerif --Shape NoSerif \ Upright --Weight Medium --Charset,* ISO8859-1
Helvetica-Bold --GeneralFamily SansSerif --Shape NoSerif \ Upright --Weight Medium --Charset,* ISO8859-1
In this example Helvetica and Helvetica-Bold are need-to-be-substituted
ids, and following hints represent information of these two fonts.
The asterisk added to Charset hinttype with comma means Charset is
required to match.
COMMANDS
new-rule
Create a new rulefile
R rulename .subst-rule
under
/etc/defoma.
additional-lines
are added to the file as comments or default rules. Quote each rule or
comment with single or double quotations.
edit-rule
Edit the rulefile specified by
R rulename .
After editing, modification is reflected to the related Id cache. In
other words, new ids would be added provided by substitutive fonts to
the Id cache if a rule is added, and registered ids would be removed
from the Id cache if a rule is removed.
add-rule
Add one or more rules specified by
rules
to the specified
R rulename .
Quote each rule with single or double quotations.
remove-rule
Remove one or more rules specified by
rules
from the specified
R rulename .
Quote each rule with single or double quotations.
check-rule
Check if the rulefile specified by
rulename
exists. It returns zero when the rulefile exists, and non-zero (actually
one) when the rulefile doesn't exist.
OPTIONS
-t
Exit with true value (0) even if error occurs.
