GRI_UNPAGE(1)

πŸ’… GRI_UNPAGE(1) β€” the split-your-PostScript era πŸ’–

okay bestie, so this is gri_unpage from the FSF, living in manual section 1, and it's literally the friend who helps you break up a situationship. Specifically: a multi-page Gri output file. You know the one β€” the file where the new page command got used and now everything's crammed together. girlypop, we're separating them. πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

gri_unpage β€” split a multi-page Gri output file into separate files. no cap, that's the whole job. πŸŽ€


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So here's the vibe: gri_unpage takes a multi-page Gri output file β€” one of those files where the new page command was used β€” and splits it into separate PostScript files. One file per page. that's it, that's the serve. πŸ’…


🫢 USAGE 🫢

# gri_unpage name.ps

and boom, it creates files name-1.ps, name-2.ps, etc. β€” one for each page of name.ps. it's giving "unstanning each page individually." 🌈

⭐ OPTIONS ⭐

the OPTIONS, available if your 'perl' has the 'getopts' library, are:

  • -l β€” sets the bounding box to letter page size. πŸ“„ by default tho, the bounding box size is extracted from the original file, and that same size gets used for all the newly created files.

πŸ’€ BUGS πŸ’€

  1. Bounding box is always the same size (grabbed from the original). it does not care. it will not be taking questions. 😭
  2. Assumes that all Gri fonts are used even if they aren't. delulu? maybe. but that's the behavior, fr fr.
