are specified, each is read, formatted, +and written to standard output. +By default, the input is separated into 66-line pages, each with +.Bl -bullet +.It +A 5-line header with the page number, date, time, and +the pathname of the file. +.It +A 5-line trailer consisting of blank lines. +.El +.Pp +If standard output is associated with a terminal, +diagnostic messages are suppressed until the +.Nm +utility has completed processing. +.Pp +When multiple column output is specified, +text columns are of equal width. +By default text columns are separated by at least one +.Em <blank> . +Input lines that do not fit into a text column are truncated. +Lines are not truncated under single column output. +.Sh OPTIONS +In the following option descriptions, column, lines, offset, page, and +width are positive decimal integers and gap is a nonnegative decimal integer. +.Bl -tag -width 4n +.It Ar \&+page +Begin output at page number +.Ar page +of the formatted input. +.It Fl Ar column +Produce output that is +.Ar columns +wide (default is 1) that is written vertically +down each column in the order in which the text +is received from the input file. +The options +.Fl e +and +.Fl i +are assumed. +This option should not be used with +.Fl m . +When used with +.Fl t , +the minimum number of lines is used to display the output. +(To columnify and reshape text files more generally and without additional +formatting, see the +.Xr rs 1 +utility.) +.It Fl a +Modify the effect of the +.Fl column +option so that the columns are filled across the page in a round-robin order +(e.g., when column is 2, the first input line heads column +1, the second heads column 2, the third is the second line +in column 1, etc.). +This option requires the use of the +.Fl column +option. +.It Fl d +Produce output that is double spaced. +An extra +.Em <newline> +character is output following every +.Em <newline> +found in the input. +.It Fl e Xo +.Op Ar char Ns +.Op Ar gap +.Xc +Expand each input +.Em <tab> +to the next greater column +position specified by the formula +.Ar n*gap+1 , +where +.Em n +is an integer > 0. +If +.Ar gap +is zero or is omitted the default is 8. +All +.Em <tab> +characters in the input are expanded into the appropriate +number of +.Em <space>s . +If any nondigit character, +.Ar char , +is specified, it is used as the input tab character. +.It Fl F +Use a +.Em <form-feed> +character for new pages, +instead of the default behavior that uses a +sequence of +.Em <newline> +characters. +.It Fl f +Same as +.Fl F +but pause before beginning the first page if standard output is a terminal. +.It Fl h Ar header +Use the string +.Ar header +to replace the +.Ar file name +in the header line. +.It Fl i Xo +.Op Ar char Ns +.Op Ar gap +.Xc +In output, replace multiple +.Em <space>s +with +.Em <tab>s +whenever two or more +adjacent +.Em <space>s +reach column positions +.Ar gap+1 , +.Ar 2*gap+1 , +etc. +If +.Ar gap +is zero or omitted, default +.Em <tab> +settings at every eighth column position +is used. +If any nondigit character, +.Ar char , +is specified, it is used as the output +.Em <tab> +character. +.It Fl L Ar locale +Use +.Ar locale +specified as argument instead of one found in environment. +Use "C" to reset locale to default. +.It Fl l Ar lines +Override the 66 line default and reset the page length to +.Ar lines . +If +.Ar lines +is not greater than the sum of both the header and trailer +depths (in lines), the +.Nm +utility suppresses output of both the header and trailer, as if the +.Fl t +option were in effect. +.It Fl m +Merge the contents of multiple files. +One line from each file specified by a file operand is +written side by side into text columns of equal fixed widths, in +terms of the number of column positions. +The number of text columns depends on the number of +file operands successfully opened. +The maximum number of files merged depends on page width and the +per process open file limit. +The options +.Fl e +and +.Fl i +are assumed. +.It Fl n Xo +.Op Ar char Ns +.Op Ar width +.Xc +Provide +.Ar width +digit line numbering. +The default for +.Ar width , +if not specified, is 5. +The number occupies the first +.Ar width +column positions of each text column or each line of +.Fl m +output. +If +.Ar char +(any nondigit character) is given, it is appended to the line number to +separate it from whatever follows. +The default for +.Ar char +is a +.Em <tab> . +Line numbers longer than +.Ar width +columns are truncated. +.It Fl o Ar offset +Each line of output is preceded by +.Ar offset +.Em <spaces>s . +If the +.Fl o +option is not specified, the default is zero. +The space taken is in addition to the output line width. +.It Fl p +Pause before each page if the standard output is a terminal. +.Nm +will write an alert character to standard error and wait for a carriage +return to be read on the terminal. +.It Fl r +Write no diagnostic reports on failure to open a file. +.It Fl s Ar char +Separate text columns by the single character +.Ar char +instead of by the appropriate number of +.Em <space>s +(default for +.Ar char +is the +.Em <tab> +character). +.It Fl t +Print neither the five-line identifying +header nor the five-line trailer usually supplied for each page. +Quit printing after the last line of each file without spacing to the +end of the page. +.It Fl w Ar width +Set the width of the line to +.Ar width +column positions for multiple text-column output only. +If the +.Fl w +option is not specified and the +.Fl s +option is not specified, the default width is 72. +If the +.Fl w +option is not specified and the +.Fl s +option is specified, the default width is 512. +.It Ar file +A pathname of a file to be printed. +If no +.Ar file +operands are specified, or if a +.Ar file +operand is +.Sq Fl , +the standard input is used. +The standard input is used only if no +.Ar file +operands are specified, or if a +.Ar file +operand is +.Sq Fl . +.El +.Pp +The +.Fl s +option does not allow the option letter to be separated from its +argument, and the options +.Fl e , +.Fl i , +and +.Fl n +require that both arguments, if present, not be separated from the option +letter. +.Sh EXIT STATUS +The +.Nm +utility exits 0 on success, and 1 if an error occurs. +.Sh DIAGNOSTICS +If +.Nm +receives an interrupt while printing to a terminal, it +flushes all accumulated error messages to the screen before +terminating. +.Pp +Error messages are written to standard error during the printing +process (if output is redirected) or after all successful +file printing is complete (when printing to a terminal). +.Sh LEGACY DESCRIPTION +The last space before the tab stop is replaced with a tab character. +In legacy mode, it is not. +.Pp +For more information about legacy mode, see +.Xr compat 5 . +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr cat 1 , +.Xr more 1 , +.Xr rs 1 , +.Xr compat 5 +.Sh STANDARDS +The +.Nm +utility is +.St -p1003.1-2001 +compatible. +.Sh HISTORY +A +.Nm +command appeared in +.At v1 . +.Sh BUGS +The +.Nm +utility does not recognize multibyte characters. |
