DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
vvttpprrttooffff is a simple program that turns off (or on) redi-
rection of ASCII text to a printer connected to a terminal
or terminal emulator. It uses terminal escape sequences
to achieve this end.
OOPPTTIIOONNSS
--dd Use the tty device file instead of stdout for out-
put. This is defined as //ddeevv//ttttyy on this system.
(This is operating system specific and may vary
from system to system.)
--DD Use the stdout stream for output, rather than a tty
device file.
--ee Forces vvttpprrttooffff to ignore the TERM environment
variable and use the builtin control codes instead.
--EE Undoes the effect of the --ee option, which allows
vvttpprrttooffff to attempt to find an entry in
//uussrr//llooccaall//lliibb//vvttpprriinntt//vvttpprriinnttccaapp for the TERM
value and use the corresponding control codes.
--hh Print out a simple usage message.
--ll Print out the license agreement.
--LL _v_t_p_r_i_n_t_c_a_p
Specifies an alternate file to use instead of
//uussrr//llooccaall//lliibb//vvttpprriinntt//vvttpprriinnttccaapp.
--qq Quiet mode. Suppress various status messages from
being displayed.
--QQ Cancels the effect of the --qq option, allowing nor-
mal progress reporting to occur.
--tt Force the use of the TERM variable to perform a
look up of the control sequences to be used in
//uussrr//llooccaall//lliibb//vvttpprriinntt//vvttpprriinnttccaapp. If an entry in
that file can't be found, vvttpprrttooffff will abort with
an error.
