1 /* paste - merge lines of files
2 Copyright (C) 1984 by David M. Ihnat
4 This program is a total rewrite of the Bell Laboratories Unix(Tm)
5 command of the same name, as of System V. It contains no proprietary
6 code, and therefore may be used without violation of any proprietary
7 agreements whatsoever. However, you will notice that the program is
8 copyrighted by me. This is to assure the program does *not* fall
9 into the public domain. Thus, I may specify just what I am now:
10 This program may be freely copied and distributed, provided this notice
11 remains; it may not be sold for profit without express written consent of
12 the author.
13 Please note that I recreated the behavior of the Unix(Tm) 'paste' command
14 as faithfully as possible, with minor exceptions; however,
15 I haven't run a full set of regression tests. Thus, the user of
16 this program accepts full responsibility for any effects or loss;
17 in particular, the author is not responsible for any losses,
18 explicit or incidental, that may be incurred through use of this program.
20 I ask that any bugs (and, if possible, fixes) be reported to me when
21 possible. -David Ihnat (312) 784-4544 ignatz@homebru.chi.il.us
23 The list of valid escape sequences has been expanded over the Unix
24 version, to include \b, \f, \r, and \v.
26 POSIX changes, bug fixes, long-named options, and cleanup
27 by David MacKenzie <djm@gnu.ai.mit.edu>.
29 Options:
30 --serial
31 -s Paste one file at a time rather than
32 one line from each file.
33 --delimiters=delim-list
34 -d delim-list Consecutively use the characters in
35 DELIM-LIST instead of tab to separate
36 merged lines. When DELIM-LIST is exhausted,
37 start again at its beginning.
38 A FILE of `-' means standard input.
