----------------------------------------------------------------------
otfinst takes a list of OpenType font files as input, uses Eddie Kohler's
otftotfm to install them into a TeX/LaTeX system, and builds and installs
the necessary font description and style files. otfinst was formerly
known as otftex_install and is written in Python. It has similar capabilities
to Marc Penninga's fontools.
