NEWFORM ( l ) -ck -pn -an NEWFORM ( l ) Change the prefix/append character to /c. Default character for /cis a space. Prefix n characters (see -c/c) to the beginning of a line when the line length is less than the effective line length. Default is to prefix the number of characters necessary to obtain the effective line length. Same as -pn except characters are appended to the end of a line. -f Write the tab specification format line on the standard output before any other lines are output. The tab specification format line which is printed will correspond to the format specified in the last -o option. If no - o option is specified, the line which is printed will contain the default specification of -8. -s Shears off leading characters on each line up to the first tab and places up to 8 of the sheared characters at the end of the line. If more than 8 characters (not counting the first tab) are sheared, the eighth character is replaced by a • and any characters to the right of it are discarded. The first tab is always discarded. An error message and program exit will occur if this option is used on a file without a tab on each line. The characters sheared off are saved internally until all other options specified are applied to that line. The � characters are then added at the end of the processed l - line. For example, to convert a file with leading digits, one or more tabs, and text on each line, to a file beginning with the text, all tabs after the first expanded to spaces, padded with spaces out to column 72 (or truncated to column 72), and the leading digits placed starting at column 73, the command would be: newform -s -i -1 -a -e file-name DIAGNOSTICS All diagnostics are fatal. usage: . . . Newform was called with a bad option. not -s format There was no tab on one line. can't open file Self-explanatory. internal line too long A line exceeds 512 characters after being expanded in the internal work buffer. tabspec in error A tab specification is incorrectly formatted, or specified tab stops are not � ascending. 1 tabspec indirection illegal A tabspec read from a file (or standard input) may not contain a tabspec referencing another file (or standard input). - 2-
NEWFORM (l) NEWFORM (l) EXIT CODES 0 - normal execution 1 - for any error SEE ALSO csplit(l), tabs(l), fspec(4). BUGS Newform normally only keeps track of physical characters; however, for the -i and -o options, newform will keep track of backspaces in order to line up tabs in the appropriate logical columns. Newform will not prompt the user if a tabspec is to be read from the standard input (by use of -i-- or -o--) . If the -r option is used, and the last -o option specified was -o--, and was preceded by either a -o-- or a -i--, the tab specification format line will be incorrect. - 3-
