ofm2opl - convert Omega and TeX font-metric files to property-list files

       According to the WEB documentation:

              The first TFtoPL program was designed by Leo Guibas in the summer of 1978.  Contributions by Frank
              Liang, Doug Wyatt, and Lyle Ramshaw also had a significant effect on the evolution of the  present
              code.

              Extensions for an enhanced ligature mechanism were added by D.E. Knuth in 1989.

              Extensions  to  handle  extended font metric files (``OFM'') were added by John Plaice in December
              1995 and January 1996, resulting in the new program OFM2OPL.

       ofm2opl is based on the WEB source code for tftopl(1),  although  nowadays  it  is  a  link  to  omfonts,
       implemented entirely in C.

       The  primary  authors  of  Omega  were  John  Plaice  and  Yannis Haralambous.  Omega (and Aleph) are now
       maintained as part of TeX Live.

       This manual page was written by C.M. Connelly for the Debian GNU/Linux system. It is also now  maintained
       as part of TeX Live.

       Email  bug  reports  to  <https://lists.tug.org/tex-k>  (mailing  list); good to check if the same bug is
       present in tftopl(1).

       General discussion of Omega (and Aleph) can take place on the <https://lists.tug.org/omega> mailing list.

ofm2opl  translates  a binary Omega Font Metrics file, ofmname, into a human-readable property-list form.
       The program writes to standard output (by default) or to a file specified as oplfile.

       The program also works with TeX TFM files, producing TeX PL files.

OFMNAME
              an Omega Font Metric file

       OPLFILE
              an Omega Property List file

       (Same as ovf2ovp).

       -charcode-format=type
              output character codes according to type, either `hex', `octal' or  `ascii'.   Default  is  `hex';
              `ascii' says to use ASCII for letters and digits, hex for all else.

       -char-format=stype
              output  character  codes according to stype, either `num' or `ascii'. Default is `num'; `ascii' as
              in -charcode-format.  (These two redundant options both exist only for historical compatibility.)

       -num-format=ntype
              output numbers according to ntype, either `hex' or `octal'; default is hex.

       -text-format=ttype
              output coding scheme and family according to ttype, either `mixed' or  `upper'  case;  default  is
              mixed.

       -help  display a brief summary of syntax and options

       -verbose
              display progress reports

       -version
              output version information and exit

omega(1), aleph(1), opl2ofm(1), pltotf(1), tftopl(1).
