VPRINT(1)  —  Unix Programmer’s Manual

NAME

vprint − pr to the Versatec

SYNOPSIS

vprint file ... 

DESCRIPTION

Vprint pr’s a copy of each named file on the line printer, dealing with the unusual length of Versatec printed pages.  Vpr currently invokes the filter sidebyside(1) to form the printed pages four across and put in cut lines. It is currently a one line shell script:

pr −l86 $∗ | vpr

BUGS

The hardware character set is ugly.  Vprint should use one of the constant width fonts to produce prettier listings.
