<dt><code>--across</code>, <code>-a</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Modify the effect of the - column option so that the columns are filled across the page in a round-robin order (for example, when column is 2, the first input line heads column 1, the second heads column 2, the third is the second line in column 1, and so on).</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>--column=&lt;column&gt;</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Produce multi-column output that is arranged in column columns (the default shall be 1) and is written down each column in the order in which the text is received from the input file. This option should not be used with -m. The options -e and -i shall be assumed for multiple text-column output. Whether or not text columns are produced with identical vertical lengths is unspecified, but a text column shall never exceed the length of the page (see the -l option). When used with -t, use the minimum number of lines to write the output.</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>--separator=&lt;char&gt;</code>, <code>-s &lt;char&gt;</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Separate text columns by the single character char instead of by the appropriate number of <space>s (default for char is the <tab> character).</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>--sep-string=&lt;string&gt;</code>, <code>-S &lt;string&gt;</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>separate columns by STRING, without -S: Default separator <TAB> with -J and <space> otherwise (same as -S&quot; &quot;), no effect on column options</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>--merge</code>, <code>-m</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Merge files. Standard output shall be formatted so the pr utility writes one line from each file specified by a file operand, side by side into text columns of equal fixed widths, in terms of the number of column positions. Implementations shall support merging of at least nine file operands.</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>--indent=&lt;margin&gt;</code>, <code>-o &lt;margin&gt;</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Each line of output shall be preceded by offset <space>s. If the -o option is not specified, the default offset shall be zero. The space taken is in addition to the output line width (see the -w option below).</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>-J</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>merge full lines, turns off -W line truncation, no column alignment, --sep-string[=STRING] sets separators</p>
</dd>
<dt><code>--help</code></dt>
<dd>
<p>Print help information</p>
</dd>
<dt></dt>
<dd>
</dd>
</dl>
<p><code>+PAGE</code> Begin output at page number page of the formatted input.
<code>-COLUMN</code> Produce multi-column output. See <code>--column</code></p>
<p>The pr utility is a printing and pagination filter for text files.
When multiple input files are specified, each is read, formatted, and written to standard output.
By default, the input is separated into 66-line pages, each with</p>
<ul>
<li>A 5-line header with the page number, date, time, and the pathname of the file.</li>
<li>A 5-line trailer consisting of blank lines.</li>
</ul>
<p>If standard output is associated with a terminal, diagnostic messages are suppressed until the pr
utility has completed processing.</p>
<p>When multiple column output is specified, text columns are of equal width.
By default, text columns are separated by at least one <code>&lt;blank&gt;</code>.
Input lines that do not fit into a text column are truncated.
Lines are not truncated under single column output.</p>
<h2 id="examples"><a class="header" href="#examples">Examples</a></h2>
<p>Print multiple files with a default header and footer:</p>
<pre><code class="language-shell">pr {{file1}} {{file2}} {{file3}}
</code></pre>
<p>Print with a custom centered header:</p>
<pre><code class="language-shell">pr -h &quot;{{header}}&quot; {{file1}} {{file2}} {{file3}}
</code></pre>
<p>Print with numbered lines and a custom date format:</p>
<pre><code class="language-shell">pr -n -D &quot;{{format}}&quot; {{file1}} {{file2}} {{file3}}
</code></pre>
<p>Print all files together, one in each column, without a header or footer:</p>
<pre><code class="language-shell">pr -m -T {{file1}} {{file2}} {{file3}}
</code></pre>
<p>Print, beginning at page 2 up to page 5, with a given page length (including header and footer):</p>
<pre><code class="language-shell">pr +{{2}}:{{5}} -l {{page_length}} {{file1}} {{file2}} {{file3}}
</code></pre>
<p>Print with an offset for each line and a truncating custom page width:</p>
<pre><code class="language-shell">pr -o {{offset}} -W {{width}} {{file1}} {{file2}} {{file3}}
</code></pre>
