NAME
newform - change the format of a text file
SYNOPSIS
newform [-s] [-itabspec] [-otabspec] [-bn] [-en] [-pn]
[-an] [-f] [-cchar] [-ln] [filename]...
DESCRIPTION
newform reads lines from the named filenames, or the standard input if
no input file is named, and reproduces the lines on the standard out‐
put. Lines are reformatted in accordance with command line options in
effect.
Except for -s, command line options may appear in any order, may be re‐
peated, and may be intermingled with the optional filenames. Command
line options are processed in the order specified. This means that op‐
tion sequences like "-e15 -l60" will yield results different from "-l60
-e15". Options are applied to all filenames on the command line.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-s Shears off leading characters on each line up to the first
tab and places up to 8 of the sheared characters at the
end of the line. If more than 8 characters (not counting
the first tab) are sheared, the eighth character is re‐
placed by a * and any characters to the right of it are
discarded. The first tab is always discarded.
An error message and program exit will occur if this op‐
tion is used on a file without a tab on each line. The
characters sheared off are saved internally until all
other options specified are applied to that line. The
characters are then added at the end of the processed
line.
For example, to convert a file with leading digits, one or
more tabs, and text on each line, to a file beginning with
the text, all tabs after the first expanded to spaces,
padded with spaces out to column 72 (or truncated to col‐
umn 72), and the leading digits placed starting at column
73, the command would be:
newform -s -i -l -a -e filename
-itabspec Input tab specification: expands tabs to spaces, according
to the tab specifications given. Tabspec recognizes all
tab specification forms described in tabs(1). In addition,
tabspec may be -, in which newform assumes that the tab
specification is to be found in the first line read from
the standard input (see fspec(5)). If no tabspec is given,
tabspec defaults to −8. A tabspec of −0 expects no tabs;
if any are found, they are treated as −1.
-otabspec Output tab specification: replaces spaces by tabs, accord‐
ing to the tab specifications given. The tab specifica‐
tions are the same as for -itabspec. If no tabspec is
given, tabspec defaults to −8. A tabspec of −0 means that
no spaces will be converted to tabs on output.
-bn Truncate n characters from the beginning of the line when
the line length is greater than the effective line length
(see −ln). Default is to truncate the number of characters
necessary to obtain the effective line length. The default
value is used when -b with no n is used. This option can
be used to delete the sequence numbers from a COBOL pro‐
gram as follows:
newform -l1 -b7 filename
-en Same as -bn except that characters are truncated from the
end of the line.
-pn Prefix n characters (see -cchar) to the beginning of a
line when the line length is less than the effective line
length. Default is to prefix the number of characters nec‐
essary to obtain the effective line length.
-an Same as -pn except characters are appended to the end of a
line.
-f Write the tab specification format line on the standard
output before any other lines are output. The tab specifi‐
cation format line which is printed will correspond to the
format specified in the last -o option. If no -o option
is specified, the line which is printed will contain the
default specification of −8.
-cchar Change the prefix/append character to char. Default char‐
acter for char is a space.
-ln Set the effective line length to n characters. If n is not
entered, -l defaults to 72. The default line length with‐
out the -l option is 80 characters. Note: Tabs and back‐
spaces are considered to be one character (use -i to ex‐
pand tabs to spaces).
The −l1 must be used to set the effective line length
shorter than any existing line in the file so that the -b
option is activated.
OPERANDS

The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful operation.

DIAGNOSTICS
All diagnostics are fatal.
usage: ...
newform was called with a bad option.
"not -s format"
There was no tab on one line.
"can't open file"
Self-explanatory.
"internal line too long"
A line exceeds 512 characters after being expanded in the internal
work buffer.
"tabspec in error"
A tab specification is incorrectly formatted, or specified tab
stops are not ascending.
"tabspec indirection illegal"
A tabspec read from a file (or standard input) may not contain a
tabspec referencing another file (or standard input).
NOTES
newform normally only keeps track of physical characters; however, for
the -i and -o options, newform will keep track of backspaces in order
to line up tabs in the appropriate logical columns.
newform will not prompt the user if a tabspec is to be read from the
standard input (by use of -i- or -o-).
If the -f option is used, and the last -o option specified was -o-, and
was preceded by either a -o- or a -i-, the tab specification format
line will be incorrect.
