I am tired of having a list of 2000 items to print in four columns and having to look ALL the way down four pages at the first column, go back to the first page and look ALL the way down at the second column, etc. I am not so tired, however, that I will not ask for a copy before I write one. Basically, a pr(1) that orders it's output internally as usual, then decides how much will fit on a page and does a mini-pr for that page, continuing this process until it is finished. Please reply via mail or, for the benefit of all, post to net.sources.
