NAME

       nylist - tool to list contents of specialized-format patches

SYNOPSIS

       nylist pam options [ print ] [ .go ]

DESCRIPTION

       nylist  is  a  tool  in the Nypatchy suite of programs for working with
       Patchy Master Files (PAM files); see nypatchy(1).  Specifically, it can
       print  a  listing  (including  line  numbers)  of the contents of these
       files.

USAGE

       The parameter pam is the name of the PAM file (a default  extension  of
       ".car"  is  assumed), print is the output file to write to (the default
       is  standard  output  if  omitted),  and  options  is  a  sequence   of
       single-character flags.

       The  command  should  be ended with ".go" unless one wants to enter the
       Nypatchy interactive shell.

OPTIONS

       Note that options should be given as a single string of characters with
       no  space  separation and no use of the - character (except that it can
       be used in place of the options  field  if  no  options  are  desired).
       Alphabetic options are not case-sensitive.

       E      Page  ejects forced in the PAM file with +SEQ,QEJECT are honored
              (only if the S option is also given).

       H      Print help information only.

       S      Start each new deck on a new page.

       n      For n a number from 0 to 4 inclusive, assume 58, 62, 74, 84,  or
              98  lines per page in the output.  (The default is 110 lines per
              page.)  For n a number greater than or equal  to  20,  use  that
              specific number of lines per page.

       +      Inhibit the initial page-eject.

       Running  the  command  "nylist  help .no" also gives some brief help on
       usage.
