updmap - who knows it?

[Steffen Wolfrum]

Hi,

working on Mac I happily added new font map files with

updmap --enable Map texnansi-vendor-example.map


Now, trying the same on a WinXP I get this error:

Option enable, key "Map" requires a value


Well, what value? What is different here than on MacOS?

maybe it's because this updmap is the Perl version, not the original
shell version; currently there is a slight incompatibility. Try with
equal sign, e. g.:

updmap --enable Map=xyz.map

Thanks for the fast reply!It looks promising.
(Although now we got an even better error - see below, please.)

"^#!\s*Map\s*" - what does that mean??
