.TH VPR 1
.SH NAME
vpr \- Versatec printer spooler
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B vpr
[ options ] [ files ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Vpr\^
causes the named
.I files\^
to be queued for printing
on a Versatec printer.
If no names appear, the standard input is assumed;
thus
.I vpr\^
may be used as a filter.
.PP
The following options may be given (each as a separate argument
and in any order)
before any file name arguments:
.PP
.PD 0
.TP 7
.B \-c
Makes a copy of the file to be sent before returning to the user.
.TP 7
.B \-r
Removes the file after sending it.
.TP 7
.B \-m
When printing is complete, reports that fact by
.IR mail (1).
.TP 7
.B \-n
Does not report the completion of printing by
.IR mail (1).
This is the default option.
.TP 7
.B \-f
Uses the next argument as a dummy file
name when reporting completion by
.IR mail (1),
thus forcing the
.B \-m
option.
(This is useful for distinguishing multiple runs, especially when
.I vpr\^
is being used as a filter).
.TP 7
.BR \-p " [ \fB\-e\fP \fIraster\fP ]"
Uses the plot filter
.I vplot\^
to output files produced by
.IR graph (1G).
The
.B \-e
option will cause
a previously scan converted file
.I raster\^
to be sent to the Versatec.
.TP 7
.B \-t
Uses the troff filter
.I vcat
to output files produced by
.IR troff (1).
.I Troff\^
must be invoked with the
.B \-t
option.
.TP 7
.I \-nF\^
For
.I n\^
between 1 and 4,
assumes font
.I F\^
is mounted in font position
.IR n ,
where
.I F\^
is
.BR R ,
.BR I ,
.BR B ,
or
.BR S .
