sed '60~60 s/$/\n\f/' txtfile
(escapes in replacement are Gnu ext)

As well as 60 ~ 60 (only in recent versions)Quote:> sed '60~60 s/$/\n\f/' txtfile
> (escapes in replacement are Gnu ext)
awk '{print} NR % 60 == 0 {printf "\f"}' txtfile
should work with every awk.

1. Question: How to cause printer page breaks using printcap?
One piece of advice I can give...the easy way out...is to
get and install and use 'apsfilter' program...*many* people
seem to have problems mastering the art of
/etc/printcap...'apsfilter' will take care of it for
you..it's pretty good.
Check sunsite for it.
