pg -- display plain text or AWP file a page (screen) at a time syntax: pg [-h] [-f] [-u] [-l] [-t tab_string] ex: pg this pg ?:txt -h como newfile;pg oldfile -l pg that -t" " Types contents of a file (any type, not just TXT). Wildcards are allowed. -h generates a header giving the date/time the file was last modified. -f disables filtering of control characters; normally they are filtered out. -u and -l force all alphabetic characters to display in uppercase or lowercase, respectively. -p begins a new page after the file is printed. -t lets you specify a string to be printed in place of each TAB character (Ctrl-I). You may want to make an alias for 'pg' with a tab string. At the bottom of each screen, you are prompted --- xx% --- more? (Y/N) where xx is the percent of the file (calculated by counting characters, not lines) you have read so far. When output is redirected to a file or to the printer, no prompting takes place. Note: many file types do not contain plain text. This command knows how to interpret AWP files, but simply displays all other files byte-for-byte. If you type a SYS file, for example, you will get a lot of garbage and (probably) a few readable messages. (see also: type, como, strings, alias)
