As shipped in IRIX 6.5.15. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.

     NAME
          makecidres - Build PostScript CID resource database file.


     SYNOPSIS
          makecidres [ options ]


     DESCRIPTION
          makecidres creates PostScript CID language resource database
          file that reflects the current state of a system's CID
          resources. This file is used to specify the location CID
          resources like CID support libraries, CID fonts and CID
          maps. In an SGI system, this file is stored as
          /usr/lib/DPS/CID.upr.


     OPTIONS
          -o filename
               Writes the output to the specified filename.  If this
               option is not speficied, then the output is written to
               /usr/lib/DPS/CID.upr.

          -f directories
               Set alternate directories of CID fonts and CID maps.
               The program searches for directories named: "CIDFont"
               and "CMap" and any files under these directories will
               be identified as CID resources.  Directories are
               seperated by a single ':'.  If this option is not
               specified, then the directory to be searched is
               /usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID

          -r directory
               Specify root.

          -v   Set verbose mode.

          -d   Set debugging mode.

          ?    List options.


     EXAMPLES
          makecidres
               Creates or overwrites /usr/lib/DPS/CID.upr that reflect
               the current state of CID resources found in
               /usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID. This default is sufficient to
               set a correct and up-to-date CID resource file for an
               SGI system.

          makecidres -o my_CID.upr
               Creates or overwrites my_CID.upr that relect the
               current state of CID resources found in
               /usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID.

          makecidres -f /usr/lib/X11:/usr/people/my_home
               Creates or overwrites /usr/lib/DPS/CID.upr that reflect
               the current state of CID resources found in both
               /usr/lib/X11 and /usr/people/my_home.  Note that the
               default location (/usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID) is not
               searched.


     LIMITATIONS
          This utility will search for directories named "CIDFont" and
          "CMap" no more than 2 directory levels away from the
          specified (either by -f or the default search path:
          /usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID) search directory.

          Any files that are found directly under the "CIDFont" and
          "CMap" directories are included as CID resources. makecidres
          makes no attempt to verify them.
