NAME

update-latex-ucs - Regenerate latex-ucs data directory

SYNOPSIS

update-latex-ucs [ -b ] [ -c ]
update-latex-ucs -h

DESCRIPTION

update-latex-ucs regenerates the data directory of latex
ucs (/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/ucs/data) from the glyph sources
(*.ucf, *.ucf.gz) in /usr/share/latex-ucs-dev/config. It does so
by calling the script makeunidef.pl ( (c) 2003 Dominique Unruh)
with appropriate parameters.
Before the generation process, the original data directory
is renamed to data.old, for the case that anything goes wrong.
After a successful generation process you may safely delete the
data.old directory to save some space.
After a successful generation process, mktexlsr is called
to rebuild LaTeX's file hash.

OPTIONS

This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax,
with long options starting with two dashes (`-').
-c, --comments
Generate data files with comments (default is no
comments). This option is simply passed to makeunidef.pl.
-b, --nobackup
Do not backup the original data directory before
the generation.
-h, --help
Print a small help message.
