lpqserver(1) -- service requests from the Macintosh K-Spool Monitor desk accessory
|
lpqserver is obsolete. The functionality is now available in spoolserv. The lpqserver is a server that provides information to the Macintosh K-Spool Monitor desk accessory. It accepts requests from Macintoshes, and responds with information gained by executing lpq(1) (for lpr systems) or lpstat(1) (for lp systems), or by attempting to read the various files in the printer's spool directory. The lpqserver is invoked with an argument naming an entry in the printcap(5) file. Flags include: -D turn... |
lpsched(1) -- start/stop the LP scheduler and move requests
|
lpsched schedules requests taken by lp(1) for printing on line printers (LP's). lpsched is normally invoked at boot time from the /etc/init.d/lp file. chkconfig (1M) can be used to enable or disable lpsched from starting ("chkconfig lp off" or "chkconfig lp on"). lpsched will normally fork to free the calling process. The -nofork option can be used to prevent lpsched from forking. Do NOT use -nofork in the /etc/init.d/lp file (the intended use is for debugging when running lpsched from a sh... |

lpstat(1) -- print LP status information
|
lpstat prints information about the current status of the LP spooling system. If no options are given, then lpstat prints the status of all requests made to lp(1) by the user. Any arguments that are not options are assumed to be request ids (as returned by lp). lpstat prints the status of such requests. Options may appear in any order and may be repeated and intermixed with other arguments. Some of the keyletters below may be followed by an optional list that can be in one of two forms: a list o... |
lptops(1) -- convert a text file into a PostScript file
|
lptops converts a text file into a PostScript file for printing on an Apple LaserWriter, or any other PostScript-compatible output device. It supports selection of a variety of fonts at arbitrary point sizes, margin specification, portrait and landscape page orientation, automatic page numbering, page outlining, and multi-column printing. This program is usually used to print ascii text files. However, it can also be used to print files which contain ISO 8859-1 characters. To print a file with I... |
ls(1) -- list contents of directory
|
For each directory argument, ls lists the contents of the directory; for each file argument, ls repeats its name and any other information requested. The output is sorted alphabetically by default. When arguments are not given, the current directory is listed. When several arguments are given, the arguments are first sorted appropriately, but file arguments appear before directories and their contents. ls processes supplementary code set characters according to the locale speci... |
lv_to_xlv(1) -- generate a script for converting from lv to XLV
|
lv_to_xlv parses the file describing the logical volumes used by the local machine and generates the required xlv_make(1M) commands to create an equivalent XLV volume. Normally, lv_to_xlv uses the logical volume file /etc/lvtab, but when the -f option is specified, the given argument lvtab_file is used. If the -o option is specified, the xlv_make(1M) commands are sent to the file output_file instead of stdout.... |
m4(1) -- macro processor
|
The m4 command is a macro processor intended as a front end for C, assembler, and other languages. Each of the argument files is processed in order; if there are no files, or if a file name is -, the standard input is read. The processed text is written on the standard output. m4 processes supplementary code set characters in comments and literals according to the locale specified in the LC_CTYPE environment variable [see LANG on envi |
mactest(1) -- Tests MAC labels on directories, files and processes.
|
The mactest command allows the current process and specified files/directories to have their MAC label attributes compared for dominance, equality and moldyness. mactest evaluates the MAC labels using the given options and returns a boolean result. The options P, F, L and M determine the type of test: -P Compare current running process and file. -F Compare two files. -L Compare MAC label and file. -M Check if the process or directory is moldy. The options D, d, e and x determine the type of comp... |
mail.local(1) -- store mail in a mailbox
|
Mail.local reads the standard input up to an end-of-file and appends it to each user's mail file. The user must be a valid user name. The options are as follows: -f from Specify the sender's name. Individual mail messages in the mailbox are delimited by an empty line followed by a line beginning with the string ``From ''. A line containing the string ``From '', the sender's name and a time stamp is prepended to each delivered mail message. A blank line is appended to each message. A great... |
mailbox(1) -- mail notification
|
mailbox watches your mailbox, and notifies you when you have mail. It displays a small picture of a mailbox to perform notification. The flag on the mailbox rises whenever new mail messages appear in your mailbox. You can open the mailbox and read your mail by clicking on the mailbox window with the left mouse button. If one of the shift keys is held down, or if you have no mail, the mailbox door simply opens without running the mail reading program. Once you have finished reading your mail, the... |
mailq(1) -- print the mail queue
|
Mailq prints a summary of the mail messages queued for future delivery. The first line printed for each message shows the internal identifier used on this host for the message, the size of the message in bytes, the date and time the message was accepted into the queue, and the envelope sender of the message. The second line shows the error message that caused this message to be retained in the queue; it will not be present if the message is being processed for the first time. The following lines... |
mailstats(1) -- display mail statistics
|
The mailstats utility displays the current mail statistics. First, the time at which statistics started being kept is displayed, in the format specified by ctime(3). Then, the statistics for each mailer are displayed on a single line, each with the following whitespace separated fields: M The mailer number. msgsfr Number of messages from the mailer. bytes_from Kbytes from the mailer. msgsto Number of messages to the mailer. bytes_to Kbytes to the mailer. msgsrej Number of messages rejected. msgs... |
mailx(1) -- send and receive mail
|
mailx is an interactive mail processing system, which has a command syntax reminiscent of ed with lines replaced by messages. Send Mode can be used by applications or users to send messages from the text in standard input. Receive Mode is more oriented to interactive users. Mail can be read and sent in this interactive mode. When reading mail, mailx provides commands to facilitate saving, deleting and responding to messages. When sending mail, mailx allows editing, reviewing and other modificati... |
mail_att(1) -- send mail to users or read mail
|
Sending Mail The command-line arguments that follow affect SENDING mail: An address can be any one of the following: 1) An RFC 822-compliant address specification (i.e. ``user@host.domain''). 2) A UUCP route (i.e. ``host1!host2!user''). 3) A local user name or alias. When addresses are specified, mail assumes a message is being sent. It reads the text of the message from standard input up to an end-of-file (control-d), or until it reads a line consisting of just a period. When either of thos... |
mail_bsd(1) -- send and receive mail
|
Mail is an interactive mail processing system, which has a command syntax reminiscent of ed with lines replaced by messages. The -v flag puts Mail into verbose mode; the details of delivery are displayed on the users terminal. The -i flag causes tty interrupt signals to be ignored. This is particularly useful when using Mail on noisy phone lines. The -n flag inhibits the reading of /usr/lib/Mail.rc. Sending mail. To send a message to one or more other people, Mail can be invoked with arguments w... |
