letters are often enough. Press [Esc] to restore the directory name to the old
setting.

font description). There are two directories to choose from, i.e. the directory

file system.set) and the directory c:\texfiles\mf (specified by the environment
variable MYMF in the file texuser.<os>).
[S] Select source files to make metafont job file

this file.

on screen (see Figure 4.19). Warning: it is not recommended to change them, unless
you have studied the documentation very carefully.
