NAME
	pr - print file

SYNOPSIS
	pr [ option ] + [ file ] +

DESCRIPTION
Pr produces a printed listing of one or more files.  The output is separated into pages headed by a date, the name of the file or a specified header, and the page number.  If there are 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.

/pn	Begin printing with page n.

/h	Take the next argument as a page header.

/wn	Take the width of the page to be n characters instead of the default 80.

/f	Use formfeeds instead of newlines to separate pages.  A formfeed is assumed to use up two blank lines at the top of a page.  (Thus this option does not affect the effective page length.)

/ln	Take the length of the page to be n lines instead of the default 66.

/t	Do not print the 5-line header or the 5-line trailer normally supplied for each page.

/sc	Separate columns by the single character c instead of by the appropriate amount of white space.  A missing c is taken to be a tab.

/m	Print all files simultaneously, each in one column.

/Tn	Take the width of a tab character to be n instead of the default 8.

Note the following differences between UNIX pr(1) and PC-DOS pr:

+	The switch character may be changed from `/' to `-' by the documented methods.

+	The option structure follows the conventions established by AT&T for UNIX command options, enforced by the use of the getopt() function.  Options that require arguments (such as /l) may have white space between the option and the argument or not.  Several options may be concatenated behind a single `/' with no white space separating them.

+	More than 9 columns are not supported, or 15 files printed simultaneously.

+	The UNIX ¬+n| option is replaced by ¬/pn|.

EXAMPLE

		pr /t /m filea fileb filec

	will print out the three files simultaneously, each in one column, without headers.
