After the next `ls -R /usr/gnu/lib/texmf` the generated fonts appear in /usr/gnu/lib/texmf/ls-R and metafont uses them. So, the fix is to change the definition of 'char *mf_mode' to "CanonCX" (or the default mode for you). tg (who hopes his memory did work correctly this time :-) ) -- Thomas Gellekum, thomas@ghpc8.ihf.rwth-aachen.de
