NAME

tk − paginator for the Tektronix 4014

SYNTAX

tk [ −t ] [ − N ] [ −p L ] [ file ]

DESCRIPTION

The tk command generates output for a Tektronix 4014 terminal.  The tk command arranges for 66 lines to fit on the screen, divides the screen into N columns, and contributes an eight space page offset in the (default) single-column case.  Tabs, spaces, and backspaces are collected and plotted when necessary.  Teletype Model 37 half- and reverse-line sequences are interpreted and plotted.  At the end of each page tk waits for a newline (empty line) from the keyboard before continuing on to the next page.  In this wait state, the command !command will send the command to the shell. 

OPTIONS

−t Do not wait between pages; for directing output into a file. 

−N Divide the screen into N columns and wait after the last column. 

−pL Set page length to L lines.
