Subject: Shell scripts generating the basic fonts

My scripts are written in Perl and the package is named `MakeFonts'. :-)
I am writing a Texinfo manual for it at present and I hope to release it
soon, too.
BTW: I have implemented Kpathsearch in Perl for `MakeFonts'. Usage is
most simple:
@dir_list = &kpathsearch ('TEXINPUTS');
@file_list = &kpathsearch ('TEXINPUTS', 'plain.tex');
$first_file = &kpathsearch ('TEXINPUTS', 'plain.tex');
`kpathsea.pl' has only a size of 3k bytes. Anybody interested? Shall
I post it here?
