As a special case, the file name "-" is used as the standard input. Any white space at the end of lines is removed, but at least one space between fields from different files is guaranteed. .SH OPTIONS .de OP .TP .B -\\$1 \\$2 .. .OP c Cycle through lines of short files until longest is exhausted. .I abut Continue printing until all files have been exhausted once. Files with fewer lines than the longest will be rewound and printed again. The standard input cannot be recycled. .OP f format Print fields in the specified format. Positive integers specify the field width. Negative integers imply a left-justified field. The default printing format is to put a tab between corresponding lines of separate files. .OP n All output lines are .I numbered beginning with 1. .SH EXAMPLE .I abut is often used to create input files to .I anova. .nf .ta .75i +.75i +.75i +.75i +.75i +.75i +.75i +.75i +.75i File1 File2 Data abut -nc File1 File2 Data large easy 12 1 large easy 12 small easy 23 2 small easy 23 hard 34 3 large hard 34 hard 45 4 small hard 45 76 5 large easy 76 62 6 small easy 62 99 7 large hard 99 14 8 small hard 14 .fi .SH LIMITS Use the -L option to determine the program limits.
