asa
ASA(1) BSD General Commands Manual ASA(1)NAME
asa -- interpret carriage-control characters
SYNOPSIS
asa [file ...]
DESCRIPTION
The asa utility reads files sequentially, mapping FORTRAN carriage-control characters to line-printer control sequences, and writes them to
the standard output.
The first character of each line is interpreted as a carriage-control character. The following characters are interpreted as follows:
<space> Output the rest of the line without change.
0 Output a <newline> character before printing the rest of the line.
1 Output a <formfeed> character before printing the rest of the line.
+ The trailing <newline> of the previous line is replaced by a <carriage-return> before printing the rest of the line.
Lines beginning with characters other than the above are treated as if they begin with <space>.
EXIT STATUS
The asa utility exit 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
EXAMPLES
To view a file containing the output of a FORTRAN program:
asa file
To format the output of a FORTRAN program and redirect it to a line-printer:
a.out | asa | lpr
SEE ALSO f77(1)STANDARDS
The asa utility conforms to IEEE Std 1003.2-1992 (``POSIX.2'') and to X/Open Commands and Utilities Issue 5 (``XCU5'').
