NAME

       lpf - lpd filter for nroff output

SYNOPSIS

       lpf -w width -l length

DESCRIPTION

       lpf is a filter which reads the output of nroff and converts lines with
       ^H’s to overwritten lines.  Thus this works  like  ul(1)  but  is  much
       better:  it  can  handle  more than 2 overwrites and it is written with
       some style.

NOTES

       This program was designed long ago, and is not much if any use today.

BUGS

       lpf will send itself the STOP signal when it encounters  the  character
       sequence ‘\031\1’.
