NAME

6       nylist - tool to list contents of specialized-format patches
7

SYNOPSIS

9       nylist pam options [ print ] [ .go ]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       nylist  is  a  tool  in the Nypatchy suite of programs for working with
13       Patchy Master Files (PAM files); see nypatchy(1).  Specifically, it can
14       print  a  listing  (including  line  numbers)  of the contents of these
15       files.
16

USAGE

18       The parameter pam is the name of the PAM file (a default  extension  of
19       ".car"  is  assumed), print is the output file to write to (the default
20       is standard output if omitted), and  options  is  a  sequence  of  sin‐
21       gle-character flags.
22
23       The  command  should  be ended with ".go" unless one wants to enter the
24       Nypatchy interactive shell.
25

OPTIONS

27       Note that options should be given as a single string of characters with
28       no  space  separation and no use of the - character (except that it can
29       be used in place of the options  field  if  no  options  are  desired).
30       Alphabetic options are not case-sensitive.
31
32       E      Page  ejects forced in the PAM file with +SEQ,QEJECT are honored
33              (only if the S option is also given).
34
35       H      Print help information only.
36
37       S      Start each new deck on a new page.
38
39       n      For n a number from 0 to 4 inclusive, assume 58, 62, 74, 84,  or
40              98  lines per page in the output.  (The default is 110 lines per
41              page.)  For n a number greater than or equal  to  20,  use  that
42              specific number of lines per page.
43
44       +      Inhibit the initial page-eject.
