DESCRIPTION
D202 and its companions print files created by troff(1) on various de‐
vices:
d202 Mergenthaler Linotron 202
e202 same, with half-tone and extra graphics capability
daps Autologic APS-5 phototypesetter
dcan Imagen Canon LBP-10 laser printer,
tc Tektronix 4014 display
If no file is mentioned, the standard input is printed. The following
options are understood.
-b Report whether the typesetter is busy; do not print.
-olist Print pages whose numbers are given in the comma-separated list.
The list contains comma-separated numbers N and ranges N1-N2. A
missing N1 means the lowest-numbered page, a missing N2 means
the highest.
-sn Stop after every n pages of output. (Default 1 on 4014). Pro‐
ceed when the RUN button is pushed on the typesetter, (for d202)
or newline on the terminal (for 4014).
-t Direct output to the standard output instead of the typesetter.
Don't wait between pages in tc.
-w Wait for typesetter to become free, then print.
-f dir Take font information from directory dir instead of the default.
-pn Change default precision of dots to n to use less precious mem‐
ory. Dcan only.
-ar Set the aspect ratio to r (default r=1.5). Tc only.
The files for daps should be prepared under the -Taps option of troff;
dcan and tc are intended as typesetter simulators, and can cope with
anything.
While waiting between pages tc accepts !command to insert a shell com‐
mand; +n to skip forward n pages; -n to skip backwards n pages; ar to
set the aspect ratio; and ? to print the list of available actions.
