This option is especially useful for previewing +.I allboxed +tables from +.BR tbl (1). +.TP +\fB\-2\fR, \fB\-\-half\-lines\fR +Causes all half-lines to be printed, effectively double spacing the output. +Normally, a minimal space output format is used which will suppress empty +lines. The program never suppresses two consecutive empty lines, however. +The +.B \-2 +option is useful for sending output to the line printer when the output +contains superscripts and subscripts which would otherwise be invisible. +.TP +\fB\-V\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR +Display version information and exit. +.TP +\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR +Display help text and exit. +.SH EXAMPLES +A typical use of +.B colcrt +would be: +.PP +.RS +.B tbl exum2.n \&| nroff \-ms \&| colcrt \- \&| more +.RE +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR col (1), +.BR more (1), +.BR nroff (1), +.BR troff (1), +.BR ul (1) +.SH BUGS +Should fold underlines onto blanks even with the +.B '\-' +option so that a true underline character would show. +.PP +Can't back up more than 102 lines. +.PP +General overstriking is lost; as a special case '|' overstruck with '\-' or +underline becomes '+'. +.PP +Lines are trimmed to 132 characters. +.PP +Some provision should be made for processing superscripts and subscripts in +documents which are already double-spaced. +.SH HISTORY +The +.B colcrt +command appeared in 3.0BSD. +.SH AVAILABILITY +The colcrt command is part of the util-linux package and is available from +.UR https://\:www.kernel.org\:/pub\:/linux\:/utils\:/util-linux/ +Linux Kernel Archive +.UE . |
