psort (1)
NAME
|
psort - sort primitives in metafile as requested |
SYNOPSIS
|
psort [ +/-x ][ +/-y ][ +/-X ][
+/-Y ] file .. |
DESCRIPTION
|
Psort reads each metafile file in sequence and
sorts primitives between globals according to the option
specification. Lower case options mean the corresponding
minimum, upper case indicates the maximum value. A '+'
before the option means sort in order of increasing values,
'-' means decreasing. The order the options appear on the
command line is the order in which the extrema are examined.
For example, the options -Y +x would mean "sort
on decreasing ymax, then increasing xmin
values". |
|
If no input files are specified, the standard input is
read. |
EXAMPLE
|
To sort the file "meta" in order of increasing
xmax, then decreasing ymin: |
FILES

/usr/tmp/psXXXXa /usr/tmp/psXXXXb |
BUGS

/usr/tmp. |
