I have managed to get MetaFont up on Xenix 2.3.2 and it passes the
trap test and generates good font files for all the TeX fonts.
I tried it on the cmman.mf which was part of the utilityfonts and this
is an excerpt from the cmman.log:
This is METAFONT, C Version 1.7 (preloaded base=cmbase 90.2.27) 27 FEB 1990 22:13
**&cmbase \mode=localfont; \mag=magstep0; \batchmode; \input cmman
(/usr/local/lib/mf/inputs/cmman.mf (/usr/local/lib/mf/inputs/cmtt10.mf) [48] (/
usr/local/lib/mf/inputs/cmssq8.mf) [12] [13] (/usr/local/lib/mf/inputs/cmr10.mf
)

w:=hround(charwd*hppp);h:=...
<for(0)> ...ncr.code,7u#,body_height#,body_depth#)
;italcorr.body_height#*sla...
l.100 endfor
I can't set an internal quantity to anything but a known
numeric value, so I'll have to ignore this assignment.
[... repeats many more times ...]
Font metrics written on cmman.tfm.
Output written on cmman.300gf (22 characters, 6580 bytes).
What am I doing wrong? Anyone have an idea?
