MC(1) MC(1) NAME mc - multicolumn print SYNOPSIS mc [ - ] [ -N ] [ file ... ] DESCRIPTION Mc splits the input into as many columns as will fit in N print positions. If run in a 9term(1), xterm(1), or acme(1) window, the default N is the number of blanks that will fit across the window; otherwise the default N is 80. Under option - each input line ending in a colon `:' is printed separately. SOURCE /usr/local/plan9/src/cmd/draw/mc.c SEE ALSO 9term(1), acme(1), acme(4), xterm(1), pr(1), lc in ls(1) BUGS On systems with high-DPI screens, 9term and acme do not have one current font. They have a pair of current fonts, one font used when the window on a low-DPI screen and one used when the window is on a high-DPI screen. Mc always uses the low-DPI font for columnation decisions.
