Hi, Vyatcheslav
 
I've heard that MiKTeX is not based on WEB2C, so some of its applications do not behavior like the ones in TeXLive. If you only use MiKTeX, you can add " -u" after initexmf in the script.
 
It's hard to say that it's a bug for we can't easily know which distribution we are using through a .pl script. So for most people's sake, it adapt the texlive usage.

Hello,

I use MikTeX. When I run texfont script, it always fails to do FNDB refresh at the end, saying

       generating : ls-r databases
       initexmf: This utility does not accept non-option arguments.

It seems like a bug in the script.
