But Metafont (2.0) don't like the '.mf'-Files of this distribution. After removing all '^M' at the EOL it typed out the error ' .. isolated expression ... ' . Because i'm only using metafont, it was for me only possible to correct the first error. in song10.mf stood 'fontidentifier "SONG10"' and after looking to cmr5.mf i corrected it to 'font_identifier:="SONG10"'. But then there were other errors. So Metafont don't like the lines wich begins with 'subroutine ...' . It would be nice, if someone who knows Metafont well could look to this Files (perhaps the author?). Bye...
