VPAC(1M)  —  Unix Programmer’s Manual

NAME

vpac − print Versatec accounting information

SYNOPSIS

vpac [ −srt ] [ name ...  ]

DESCRIPTION

Vpac reads the Versatec accounting file, accumulating the number of feet of paper consumed by each user, and printing out how much each user consumed in feet and dollars (billed at 8 cents / foot).  If any names are specified, then statistics are only printed for those users; usually, statistics are printed for every user who has used any paper. 

The −t flag causes the output to be sorted by feet of paper; usually the output is sorted alphabetically by name.  The −r flag reverses the sorting order.  The −s flag causes the accounting information to be summarized on the file /usr/adm/vp_sum ; this summarization is necessary since on a busy system, the accounting file can grow by several lines per day. 

FILES

/usr/adm/vpacct − Versatec accounting file
/usr/adm/vp_sum − summary accounting file

BUGS

The relationship between the computed price and reality is as yet unknown.
