NAME

tk − paginator for the Tektronix 4014

SYNOPSIS

tk [ −t ] [ − N ] [ −p L ] [ file ]

DESCRIPTION

The output of tk is intended for a Tektronix 4014 terminal.  Tk allocates space for 66 lines 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.  During this wait state, the command !command sends the command to the shell. 

The command line options are as follows:

−t Don’t 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.
