If mpxfile is older than mpfile, translate the labels
from the input file mpfile to low-level commands in MPXFILE, by running
mpto -tex, tex, and dvitomp by default; or, if -troff is specified, mpto
-troff, eqn -d\$\$ | troff -Tpost, and dmp.
The current directory is used for
writing temporary files. Errors are left in mpxerr.{tex,log,dvi}.
If the
file named in $MPTEXPRE (mptexpre.tex by default) exists, it is prepended
to the output in tex mode.
makempx is typically called by mpost, not from
the command line.
makempx accepts the following options:
- --help
- Print help message and exit.
- --tex
- Assume input file contains commands.
- --troff
- Assume input file contains Troff commands.
- --version
- Print version
information and exit.
