NAME
       mc - multicolumn	print

SYNOPSIS
       mc [ - ]	[ -N ] [ file ...  ]

DESCRIPTION
       Mc  splits  the input into as many columns as will fit in N print posi-
       tions.  If run in a 9term((1)), xterm((1)), or  acme((1))  window,  the
       default N is the	number of blanks that will fit across the window; oth-
       erwise the default N is 80.  Under option - each	input line ending in a
       colon is	printed	separately.

SOURCE
       /src/cmd/draw/mc.c

SEE ALSO
       9term((1)), acme((1)), acme((4)), xterm((1)), pr((1)), lc in ls((1))

BUGS
       On  systems  with high-DPI screens, 9term and acme do not have one cur-
       rent font.  They	have a pair of current fonts, one font used  when  the
       window  on  a low-DPI screen and	one used when the window is on a high-
       DPI screen.  Mc always uses the low-DPI font for	columnation decisions.
