pr: -w option is ignored

mknos opened this issue · 0 comments

  • The numeric option -w is accepted in the options parser, and sets $pagewidth
  • Any value given to -w is ignored because $pagewidth is reset by the condition on L142
  • From the GNU pr manual, -w option not used for single-column output (but should be for multi-column output)
  • Possibly it should check $columns as well as $column_sep
