Toggle xfst compatibility option VARIABLE.

Harmonization:

-H, --do-not-harmonize Do not harmonize symbols.

Harmonize flag diacritics.

If OUTFILE, or either INFILE1 or INFILE2 is missing or -, standard streams will be used. INFILE1, INFILE2, or both, must be specified. Format of result depends on format of INFILE1 and INFILE2; both should have the same format.

The operation is applied pairwise for INFILE1 and INFILE2 that must have the same number of transducers. If INFILE2 has only one transducer, the operation is applied for each transducer in INFILE1 keeping the second transducer constant.

Xfst variables are {flag-is-epsilon (default OFF)}. VALUE can be one of the following: [true|false], [yes|no] or [ON|OFF], false being the default.
