44: .Sh DESCRIPTION
45: The
46: .Nm
47: utility reads files sequentially, mapping
48: .Tn FORTRAN
49: carriage-control characters to line-printer control sequences,
50: and writes them to the standard output.
51: .Pp
52: The first character of each line is interpreted as a carriage-control
1.8 aaron 53: character.
54: Additionally, the following characters are interpreted as shown:
1.1 deraadt 55: .Bl -tag -width indent
1.11 jmc 56: .It Aq space
1.1 deraadt 57: Output the rest of the line without change.
58: .It 0
1.5 aaron 59: Output a newline
60: .Pq Sq \en
61: character before printing the rest of the line.
1.1 deraadt 62: .It 1
1.11 jmc 63: Output a
64: .Aq formfeed
65: character before printing the rest of the line.
1.1 deraadt 66: .It +
1.5 aaron 67: The trailing newline
68: .Pq Sq \en
69: of the previous line is replaced by a carriage-return
70: .Pq Sq \er
1.1 deraadt 71: before printing the rest of the line.
72: .El
73: .Pp

1.10 deraadt 86: .Dl $ asa file
1.1 deraadt 87: .Pp
88: To format the output of a
