pr

Paginate or columnate files for printing.

• Print multiple files with a default header and footer:

pr {file1} {file2} {file3}

• Print with a custom centered header:

pr -h "{header}" {file1} {file2} {file3}

• Print with numbered lines and a custom date format:

pr -n -D "{format}" {file1} {file2} {file3}

• Print all files together, one in each column, without a header or footer:

pr -m -T {file1} {file2} {file3}

• Print, beginning at page 2 up to page 5, with a given page length (including header and footer):

pr +{2}:{5} -l {page_length} {file1} {file2} {file3}

• Print with an offset for each line and a truncating custom page width:

pr -o {offset} -W {width} {file1} {file2} {file3}
