- Why do I need this program?
-
- If you work with PasTeX and you don't have enough disk space,
- you might have only the pk-files you really need on your harddisk.
-
- Here helps this program, together with the MARK option of
- ShowDVI and DVIprint. Start ShowDVI and DVIprint always
- with the MARK option (put it into ENVARC:SHOWDVI and
- ENVARC:DVIPRINT) and the drivers will mark every font they
- used with an use-count and a date-stamp.
-
- After some time, if you want get rid of old, seldom used fonts,
- start "lsfont TeX:pk TO ram:fontlist" and look into the generated
- list. The first number is the use count. So often is the font
- used from a driver (started with MARK).
-
- If you want delete some fonts of the list, do
- "lsfont TeX:pk TO ram:fontlist DELETE" and edit the file (delete all
- fonts out of the file which you *don't* want delete from your
- harddisk). After that, you can "execute ram:fontlist" delete the
- old fonts.
-
- Other idea to use the list:
- Do copy the fonts first on some floppy-disks and delete them after
- that from the hard-disk. Now, if you put your backup floppies into
- TeX:config/FontVols, the drivers will find them on your floppies.
