With no arguments it transforms stream input into a columnar format convenient for terminal viewing. -.PP +.Pp The shape of the input array is deduced from the number of lines and the number of columns on the first line. If that shape is inconvenient, a more useful one might be -obtained by skipping some of the input with the \fB\-k\fP option. +obtained by skipping some of the input with the +.Fl k +option. Other options control interpretation of the input columns. -.PP +.Pp The shape of the output array is influenced by the -.I rows +.Ar rows and -.I cols +.Ar cols specifications, which should be positive integers. If only one of them is a positive integer, -.I rs +.Nm computes a value for the other which will accommodate all of the data. When necessary, missing data are supplied in a manner specified by the options and surplus data are deleted. There are options to control presentation of the output columns, including transposition of the rows and columns. -.PP +.Pp The options are as follows: -.IP \fB\-c\fRx -Input columns are delimited by the single character \fIx\fP. -A missing \fIx\fP is taken to be `^I'. -.IP \fB\-s\fRx -Like \fB\-c\fR, but maximal strings of \fIx\fP are delimiters. -.IP \fB\-C\fRx -Output columns are delimited by the single character \fIx\fP. -A missing \fIx\fP is taken to be `^I'. -.IP \fB\-S\fRx -Like \fB\-C\fR, but padded strings of \fIx\fP are delimiters. -.IP \fB\-t\fR +.Bl -tag -width indent +.It Fl c Ns Ar x +Input columns are delimited by the single character +.Ar x . +A missing +.Ar x +is taken to be +.Ql ^I . +.It Fl s Ns Ar x +Like +.Fl c , +but maximal strings of +.Ar x +are delimiters. +.It Fl C Ns Ar x +Output columns are delimited by the single character +.Ar x . +A missing +.Ar x +is taken to be +.Ql ^I . +.It Fl S Ns Ar x +Like +.Fl C , +but padded strings of +.Ar x +are delimiters. +.It Fl t Fill in the rows of the output array using the columns of the input array, that is, transpose the input while honoring any -.I rows +.Ar rows and -.I cols +.Ar cols specifications. -.IP \fB\-T\fR +.It Fl T Print the pure transpose of the input, ignoring any -.I rows +.Ar rows or -.I cols +.Ar cols specification. -.IP \fB\-k\fRN -Ignore the first \fIN\fR lines of input. -.IP \fB\-K\fRN -Like \fB\-k\fR, but print the ignored lines. -.IP \fB\-g\fRN -The gutter width (inter-column space), normally 2, is taken to be \fIN\fR. -.IP \fB\-G\fRN -The gutter width has \fIN\fR percent of the maximum -column width added to it. -.IP \fB\-e\fR +.It Fl k Ns Ar N +Ignore the first +.Ar N +lines of input. +.It Fl K Ns Ar N +Like +.Fl k , +but print the ignored lines. +.It Fl g Ns Ar N +The gutter width (inter-column space), normally 2, is taken to be +.Ar N . +.It Fl G Ns Ar N +The gutter width has +.Ar N +percent of the maximum column width added to it. +.It Fl e Consider each line of input as an array entry. -.IP \fB\-n\fR +.It Fl E +Consider each character of input as an array entry. +.It Fl n On lines having fewer entries than the first line, use null entries to pad out the line. Normally, missing entries are taken from the next line of input. -.IP \fB\-y\fR +.It Fl y If there are too few entries to make up the output dimensions, pad the output by recycling the input from the beginning. Normally, the output is padded with blanks. -.IP \fB\-h\fR +.It Fl h Print the shape of the input array and do nothing else. The shape is just the number of lines and the number of entries on the first line. -.IP \fB\-H\fR -Like \fB\-h\fR, but also print the length of each line. -.IP \fB\-j\fR +.It Fl H +Like +.Fl h , +but also print the length of each line. +.It Fl j Right adjust entries within columns. -.IP \fB\-w\fRN +.It Fl w Ns Ar N The width of the display, normally 80, is taken to be the positive -integer \fIN\fP. -.IP \fB\-m\fR +integer +.Ar N . +.It Fl m Do not trim excess delimiters from the ends of the output array. -.IP \fB\-z\fR +.It Fl z Adapt column widths to fit the largest entries appearing in them. -.PP +.El +.Pp With no arguments, -.I rs +.Nm transposes its input, and assumes one array entry per input line unless the first non-ignored line is longer than the display width. Option letters which take numerical arguments interpret a missing number as zero unless otherwise indicated. -.SH EXAMPLES -.de IC -.IP -.ss 36 -.ft B -.. -.de NC -.br -.ss 12 -.PP -.. -.I Rs +.Sh EXAMPLES +.Nm can be used as a filter to convert the stream output of certain programs (e.g., -.IR spell , -.IR du , -.IR file , -.IR look , -.IR nm , -.IR who , +.Xr spell , +.Xr du , +.Xr file , +.Xr look , +.Xr nm , +.Xr who , and -.IR wc (1)) -into a convenient ``window'' format, as in -.IC -who | rs -.NC +.Xr wc 1 ) +into a convenient +.Dq window +format, as in +.Bd -literal -offset indent +% who | rs +.Ed +.Pp This function has been incorporated into the -.IR ls (1) +.Xr ls 1 program, though for most programs with similar output -.I rs +.Nm suffices. -.PP +.Pp To convert stream input into vector output and back again, use -.IC -rs 1 0 | rs 0 1 -.NC +.Bd -literal -offset indent +% rs 1 0 | rs 0 1 +.Ed +.Pp A 10 by 10 array of random numbers from 1 to 100 and its transpose can be generated with -.IC -jot \-r 100 | rs 10 10 | tee array | rs \-T > tarray -.NC +.Bd -literal -offset indent +% jot \-r 100 | rs 10 10 | tee array | rs \-T > tarray +.Ed +.Pp In the editor -.IR vi (1), +.Xr vi 1 , a file consisting of a multi-line vector with 9 elements per line can undergo insertions and deletions, and then be neatly reshaped into 9 columns with -.IC +.Bd -literal -offset indent :1,$!rs 0 9 -.NC +.Ed +.Pp Finally, to sort a database by the first line of each 4-line field, try -.IC -rs \-eC 0 4 | sort | rs \-c 0 1 -.NC -.SH SEE ALSO -jot(1), vi(1), sort(1), pr(1) -.SH BUGS +.Bd -literal -offset indent +% rs \-eC 0 4 | sort | rs \-c 0 1 +.Ed +.Sh SEE ALSO +.Xr jot 1 , +.Xr pr 1 , +.Xr sort 1 , +.Xr vi 1 +.Sh BUGS Handles only two dimensional arrays. - +.Pp The algorithm currently reads the whole file into memory, so files that do not fit in memory will not be reshaped. - +.Pp Fields cannot be defined yet on character positions. - +.Pp Re-ordering of columns is not yet possible. - +.Pp There are too many options.
