π outocp β ok bestie, let's talk
First things first: this page lives in the General Commands Manual part of your system, and the star of the show is a command called outocp. Grab a snack, hydrate, and let's get into it π«Ά
β¨ NAME β¨
outocp β debug an OCP file π
π SYNOPSIS π
outocp OCPFILE[.ocp]
That's literally it. You hand it an OCP file, and the .ocp on the end is optional β it'll cope. Iconic behaviour honestly.
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
Okay so here's the tea β outocp is your debugging bestie for Omega Compiled Translation Process (OCP) files. What does it do? Two things, periodt:
- It generates some statistics about the OCP file β numbers, facts, the whole vibe check π
- Then it runs through all the states</> that the file defines π
And what even are Omega Translation Processes, you ask? They're rules β rules used to translate one character set to another, and to choose between characters that have one or more context-sensitive variants. (Yeah that's all we get. Slay.) OTPs could also be used to change the case or the hyphenation of text. Versatile queen, we love her π
π BUGS π
Found a bug? Not cute, not the vibe. Email your bug reports to https://lists.tug.org/tex-k β it's a public mailing list, so everyone sees, no secrets, fr fr π

Also go peek at https://ctan.org/pkg/omega β doors are open π
π AUTHOR π
mkocp is part of Omega. (Yes, it says mkocp β we don't make the rules π) The primary authors of Omega are John Plaice and Yannis Haralambous β literal icons, no cap.
This manual page was written by C.M. Connelly for the Debian GNU/Linux system. It is now maintained as part of TeX Live π
Also just so you know: this whole thing is about the command, not by the command. If you're staring at outocp(1) and wondering who wrote it β now you know. Main character energy from C.M. Connelly, honestly π
And that's a wrap, bestie π¦ This little beauty ships as part of TeX Live, dated 8 March 2022, sitting pretty in the outocp(1) slot of your manual pages. Go debug something, you got this β¨π
