Re: inimf -where is this? tetex 3.0

[Mats Bengtsson]

In a normal installation of teTeX, inimf is just a soft link
to mf (which uses the trick to check the name it was invoked
with to determine what to do). Possibly some of the metafont
related programs have been moved to some separate package
in the SuSE packaging of teTeX 3.0?
