Lines shall be num- + bered on the left. Additional functionality may be pro- + vided in accordance with the command options in effect. + + The nl utility views the text it reads in terms of logi- + cal pages. Line numbering shall be reset at the start + of each logical page. A logical page consists of a + header, a body, and a footer section. Empty sections are + valid. Different line numbering options are indepen- + dently available for header, body, and footer (for exam- + ple, no numbering of header and footer lines while num- + bering blank lines only in the body). + + The starts of logical page sections shall be signaled by + input lines containing nothing but the following delim- + iter characters: + Line Start of + \:\:\: Header + \:\: Body + \: Footer + + Unless otherwise specified, nl shall assume the text + being read is in a single logical page body. + +OPTIONS + The nl utility shall conform to the Base Definitions + volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 12.2, Utility + Syntax Guidelines. Only one file can be named. + + The following options shall be supported: + + -b type + Specify which logical page body lines shall be + numbered. Recognized types and their meaning are: + + a Number all lines. + + t Number only non-empty lines. + + n No line numbering. + + pstring + Number only lines that contain the basic regular + expression specified in string. + + + The default type for logical page body shall be t (text + lines numbered). + + -d delim + Specify the delimiter characters that indicate + the start of a logical page section. These can be + changed from the default characters "\:" to two + user-specified characters. If only one character + is entered, the second character shall remain the + default character ':' . + + -f type + Specify the same as b type except for footer. The + default for logical page footer shall be n (no + lines numbered). + + -h type + Specify the same as b type except for header. The + default type for logical page header shall be n + (no lines numbered). + + -i incr + Specify the increment value used to number logi- + cal page lines. The default shall be 1. + + -l num + Specify the number of blank lines to be consid- + ered as one. For example, -l 2 results in only + the second adjacent blank line being numbered (if + the appropriate -h a, -b a, or -f a option is + set). The default shall be 1. + + -n format + Specify the line numbering format. Recognized + values are: ln, left justified, leading zeros + suppressed; rn, right justified, leading zeros + suppressed; rz, right justified, leading zeros + kept. The default format shall be rn (right jus- + tified). + + -p Specify that numbering should not be restarted at + logical page delimiters. + + -s sep + Specify the characters used in separating the + line number and the corresponding text line. The + default sep shall be a . + + -v startnum + Specify the initial value used to number logical + page lines. The default shall be 1. + + -w width + Specify the number of characters to be used for + the line number. The default width shall be 6. + + +OPERANDS + The following operand shall be supported: + + file A pathname of a text file to be line-numbered. + + +STDIN + The standard input is a text file that is used if no + file operand is given. + +INPUT FILES + The input file named by the file operand is a text file. + +ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES + The following environment variables shall affect the + execution of nl: + + LANG Provide a default value for the internationaliza- + tion variables that are unset or null. (See the + Base Definitions volume of IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, + Section 8.2, Internationalization Variables for + the precedence of internationalization variables + used to determine the values of locale cate- + gories.) + + LC_ALL If set to a non-empty string value, override the + values of all the other internationalization + variables. + + LC_COLLATE + + Determine the locale for the behavior of ranges, + equivalence classes, and multi-character collat- + ing elements within regular expressions. + + LC_CTYPE + Determine the locale for the interpretation of + sequences of bytes of text data as characters + (for example, single-byte as opposed to multi- + byte characters in arguments and input files), + the behavior of character classes within regular + expressions, and for deciding which characters + are in character class graph (for the -b t, -f t, + and -h t options). + + LC_MESSAGES + Determine the locale that should be used to + affect the format and contents of diagnostic mes- + sages written to standard error. + + NLSPATH + Determine the location of message catalogs for + the processing of LC_MESSAGES . + + +ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS + Default. + +STDOUT + The standard output shall be a text file in the follow- + ing format: + + + "%s%s%s", , , + + where is one of the following numeric for- + mats: + + %6d When the rn format is used (the default; see -n). + + %06d When the rz format is used. + + %-6d When the ln format is used. + + + When line numbers are suppressed for a portion of + the page; the is also suppressed. + + + In the preceding list, the number 6 is the default + width; the -w option can change this value. + +STDERR + The standard error shall be used only for diagnostic + messages. + +OUTPUT FILES + None. + +EXTENDED DESCRIPTION + None. + +EXIT STATUS + The following exit values shall be returned: + + 0 Successful completion. + + >0 An error occurred. + + +CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS + Default. + + The following sections are informative. + +APPLICATION USAGE + In using the -d delim option, care should be taken to + escape characters that have special meaning to the com- + mand interpreter. + +EXAMPLES + The command: + + + nl -v 10 -i 10 -d \!+ file1 + + numbers file1 starting at line number 10 with an incre- + ment of 10. The logical page delimiter is "!+" . Note + that the '!' has to be escaped when using csh as a com- + mand interpreter because of its history substitution + syntax. For ksh and sh the escape is not necessary, but + does not do any harm. + +RATIONALE + None. + +FUTURE DIRECTIONS + None. + +SEE ALSO + pr + +COPYRIGHT + Portions of this text are reprinted and reproduced in + electronic form from IEEE Std 1003.1, 2003 Edition, + Standard for Information Technology -- Portable Operat- + ing System Interface (POSIX), The Open Group Base Speci- + fications Issue 6, Copyright (C) 2001-2003 by the Insti- + tute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, Inc and + The Open Group.
