NAME

       paperconfig - configure the system default paper size

SYNOPSIS

       paperconfig  [  -v,--version  ] [ -h,--help ] [ -p, --paper papername |
       --force ]

DESCRIPTION

       paperconfig sets the system (or default) paper  to  be  used  by  tools
       using  the  papersize  file.   It  can either ask interactively for the
       paper to use or be called non-interactively by scripts.

       When the paper  size  has  been  changed,  paperconfig  notifies  other
       packages  of  the  change by running the scripts in the /etc/libpaper.d
       directory.

OPTIONS

       -v,--version
              Print the version of paperconfig and exit.

       -h,--help
              Print help about usage and exit.

       -p, --paper papername
              Use papername if possible. If papername is not  a  valid  paper,
              print an error message and exit.

       --force
              Force  interactive  selection  of  the  system paper even if the
              actual paper is a valid one.

ENVIRONMENT

       PAPERCONF Full path to a file containing the paper size  to  use;  this
       file will be rewritten with the system paper size.

FILES

       /etc/papersize      Contains  the name of the system-wide default paper
                           size to be used if the PAPERSIZE  variable  is  not
                           set.

       /etc/libpaper.d     Directory  of  scripts  to run after the paper size
                           has been changed.  This  package  puts  no  scripts
                           here, but other packages may.
