.I directory

.SH DESCRIPTION
For each directory argument,
.I mkfontscale
reads all of the scalable font files in the directory. For every font
file found, an X11 font name (XLFD) is generated, and is written
together with the file name to a file
.B fonts.scale
in the directory.
The resulting
.B fonts.scale
file should be checked and possibly manually edited before being used
as input for the
.BR mkfontdir (1)
program.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
.BI \-e " encoding"
add
.I encoding
to the list of encodings searched for.
.TP
.BI \-f " fuzz"
set the fraction of characters that may be missing in large encodings to
.I fuzz
percent. Defaults to 2%.
.TP
.B \-\-
end of options.

.SH NOTES
.B Mkfontscale
will overwrite any
.B fonts.scale
file even if it has been hand-edited.
.SH AUTHOR
.B Mkfontscale
was written by Juliusz Chroboczek <jch@xfree86.org> for the XFree86
project. The functionality of this program was inspired by the
.B ttmkfdir
utility by Joerg Pommnitz.
