NAME

       tc - photypesetter simulator

SYNOPSIS

       tc [ -t ] [ -sN ] [ -pL ] [ file ]

DESCRIPTION

       Tc interprets its input (standard input default) as device codes for a Graphic Systems phototypesetter (cat).  The standard output of tc is
       intended for a Tektronix 4015 (a 4014 teminal with ASCII and APL character sets).  The sixteen typesetter sizes are mapped into the  4014's
       four  sizes;  the  entire TROFF character set is drawn using the 4014's character generator, using overstruck combinations where necessary.
       Typical usage:

		      troff -t file | tc

       At the end of each page tc waits for a newline (empty line) from the keyboard before continuing on to the next page.  In this  wait  state,
       the  command  e will suppress the screen erase before the next page; sN will cause the next N pages to be skipped; and !line will send line
       to the shell.

       The command line options are:

       -t     Don't wait between pages; for directing output into a file.

       -sN    Skip the first N pages.

       -pL    Set page length to L.  L may include the scale factors p (points), i (inches), c (centimeters), and P (picas); default is picas.

       '-l w' Multiply the default aspect ratio, 1.5, of a displayed page by l/w.

SEE ALSO

       troff(1), plot(1)

BUGS

       Font distinctions are lost.
       The aspect ratio option is unbelievable.

BUGS

       Font distinctions are lost.
       tc's character set is limited to ASCII in just one size.
       The aspect ratio option is unbelievable.
