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
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
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.
