PR(1)               UNIX Programmer's Manual                PR(1)



== NAME ==
     pr  -  print file

== SYNOPSIS ==
     pr [ option ] ...  [ file ] ...

== DESCRIPTION ==
     _P_r produces a printed listing of one or more _f_i_l_e_s. The out-
     put 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, _p_r 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.

     -h   Take the next argument as a page header.

     -w_n  For purposes of multi-column output, take the width of
          the page to be _n characters instead of the default 72.

     -l_n  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.

     -s_c  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 _f_i_l_e_s simultaneously, each in one column,

     Inter-terminal messages via _w_r_i_t_e(1) are forbidden during a
     _p_r.

== FILES ==
     /dev/tty?  to suspend messages.

== SEE ALSO ==
     [[32v 1m cat|cat(1)]]

== DIAGNOSTICS ==
     There are no diagnostics when _p_r is printing on a terminal.
