NAME
       fpr -- print Fortran file

SYNOPSIS
       fpr

DESCRIPTION
       Fpr  is a filter	that transforms	files formatted	according to Fortran's
       carriage	control	conventions into files	formatted  according  to  Unix
       line printer conventions.

       Fpr  copies  its	 input onto its	output,	replacing the carriage control
       characters with characters that will produce the	intended effects  when
       printed	using lpr(1).  The first character of each line	determines the
       vertical	spacing	as follows:

	     Blank	  One line
	     0		  Two lines
	     1		  To first line	of next	page
	     +		  No advance

       A blank line is treated as if its first character is a blank.  A	 blank
       that  appears  as  a  carriage  control character is deleted. A zero is
       changed to a newline.  A	one is changed to a form feed. The effects  of
       a "+" are simulated using backspaces.

EXAMPLES
	     a.out | fpr | lpr

	     fpr < f77.output |	lpr

HISTORY
       The fpr command appeared	in 4.2BSD.

BUGS
       Results are undefined for input lines longer than 170 characters.

4.2 Berkeley Distribution	 June 6, 1993				FPR(1)
