.SH NAME
|
||||
cols \- columnize output
|
||||
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||||
.B cols
|
||||
.RB [ \-c
|
||||
.IR chars ]
|
||||
.RI [ file ...]
|
||||
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||||
.B cols
|
||||
reads each file in sequence and writes them to stdout,
|
||||
in as many vertical columns as will fit in
|
||||
.I chars
|
||||
character columns.
|
||||
If no file is given, cols reads from stdin.
|
||||
.SH OPTIONS
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BI \-c " chars"
|
||||
specifies the maximum number of character columns to use
|
||||
(unless the input contains lines longer than
|
||||
.I chars
|
||||
characters). By default cols tries to figure out the width
|
||||
of the output device, if that fails it defaults to 65
|
||||
chars.
|
||||
.SH BUGS
|
||||
This implementation of
|
||||
.B cols
|
||||
assumes that every byte is a character
|
||||
which takes up one column on the screen.
|
||||
It does not handle non-ASCII UTF-8 runes
|
||||
or TAB characters correctly.
|
||||
.B cols
|
||||
currently mangles files which contain embedded NULs.
|
||||
.B cols
|
||||
does not allow the user to set a default width in its environment.
