NAME
       fpr - print Fortran file

SYNOPSIS
       fpr

DESCRIPTION
       Fpr  is a filter that transforms files formatted according to Fortran's carriage control conventions into files formatted according to UNIX
       line printer conventions.

       Fpr copies its input onto its output, replacing the carriage control characters with characters that will produce the intended effects when
       printed using lpr(1).  The first character of each line determines the vertical spacing as follows:

	   +---------------+--------------------------------+
	   |   Character   | Vertical Space Before Printing |
	   |---------------+--------------------------------|
	   |	 Blank	   | One line			    |
	   |	   0	   | Two lines			    |
	   |	   1	   | To first line of next page     |
	   |	   +	   | No advance 		    |
	   +---------------+--------------------------------+

       A  blank  line  is treated as if its first character is a blank. A blank that appears as a carriage control character is deleted. A zero is
       changed to a newline.  A one is changed to a form feed. The effects of a "+" are simulated using backspaces.

EXAMPLES
       a.out | fpr | lpr

       fpr < f77.output | lpr

BUGS
       Results are undefined for input lines longer than 170 characters.
