NAME

tp - a pure perl pager

SYNOPSIS

tp -[JSenrs] [-cols] [-l[STR]] [-j|+ #] [-p|+/ STR]

OPTIONS

-e

Exit at end of file.

-f[STR]

If defined, the pager will pause when the character sequence specified by STR is encountered in the input text. The default value when enabled is formfeed i.e; ^L; in order to mimic traditional behavior of "1" in more.

You might also supply a regular expression as STR e.g;

tp -f '[ie]t'

-J

Add a column with markers indicating which row match a search expression.

-n

Display line numbering. Toggleable at run time with #.

-r

Send raw control characters from input unadulterated to the terminal. By default, chracters other than tab and newline will be converted to caret notation e.g; ^@ for null or ^L for form feed.

-s

Squeeze multiple blank lines into one.

-S

Do not fold long lines.

-cols

Set the number of columns for the pager.

If absent, the terminal is queried directly with Term::ReadKey if loaded or stty or tput, and if these fail it defaults to 80.
