40.Sh NAME
41.Nm fpr
42.Nd print Fortran file
43.Sh SYNOPSIS
44.Nm fpr
45.Sh DESCRIPTION
46.Nm Fpr
47is a filter that transforms files formatted according to
48Fortran's carriage control conventions into files formatted
49according to
50.Ux
51line printer conventions.
52.Pp
53.Nm Fpr
54copies its input onto its output, replacing the carriage
55control characters with characters that will produce the intended
56effects when printed using
57.Xr lpr  1  .
58The first character of each line determines the vertical spacing as follows:
59.Bd -ragged -offset indent -compact
60.Bl -column Character
61.It Blank	One line
62.It 0	Two lines
63.It 1	To first line of next page
64.It +	No advance
65.El
66.Ed
67.Pp
68A blank line is treated as if its first
69character is a blank. A blank that appears as a carriage control
70character is deleted. A zero is changed to a newline.  A one is
71changed to a form feed. The effects of a "+" are simulated using
72backspaces.
