.Vb 1
\&  sfdmeld [\-a ap.xml] [\-p] structure.sfd design.sfd output.sfd
.Ve
.PP
Merges two FontForge font files such that the lookups and behaviour in the
second (design) file is overridden by that in the first file. So for example,
which attachment points a glyph has are governed by the structure file but
their positions are taken from the design file. Lookups are taken from the
structure file.
.SH OPTIONS
