NAME
SYNOPSIS
| |
pr [ option ... ] [ file ... ]
|
DESCRIPTION
| |
Pr produces a printed listing of one or more files on its standard
output. The output is separated into pages headed by a date, the
name of the file or a specified header, and the page number. With
no file arguments, pr prints its standard input.
Options apply to all following files but may be reset between
files:
−n Produce n-column output.
+n Begin printing with page n.
−b Balance columns on last page, in case of multi-column output.
−d Double space.
−en Set the tab stops for input text every n spaces.
−h Take the next argument as a page header (file by default).
−in Replace sequences of blanks in the output by tabs, using tab
stops set every n spaces.
−f Use form feeds to separate pages.
−ln Take the length of the page to be n lines instead of the default
66.
−m Print all files simultaneously, each in one column.
−nm Number the lines of each file. The numeric argument m, default
5, sets the width of the line-number field.
−on Offset the left margin n character positions.
−p Pad each file printed to an odd number of pages. For two-sided
printers, this will ensure each file will start a new page.
−sc Separate columns by the single character c instead of aligning
them with white space. A missing c is taken to be a tab.
−t Do not print the 5-line header or the 5-line trailer normally
supplied for each page.
−wn For multi-column output, take the width of the page to be n
characters instead of the default 72.
