  Do you really need another reason? Have you tried otfinst? The point
of all these scripts is to make your life easier in generating metrics,
auxiliary fonts and map files; if you tear yourself with questions
before trying them much of their interest is lost on you.

  I have no idea; but at any rate it belongs to a clearly “older”
generation of scripts. The latest available version has
“version=2004.02.06” in the documentation part, and even without that
you can spot it quite easily since it belongs to Hans' Perl period ;-)

  Probably not.

  Why don't you try it for yourself?
