16 | _\bP_\ba_\bc reads the printer/plotter accounting files, accumulating | |
17 | the number of pages (the usual case) or feet (for raster | |
18 | devices) of paper consumed by each user, and printing out | |
19 | how much each user consumed in pages or feet and dollars. | |
20 | If any _\bn_\ba_\bm_\be_\bs are specified, then statistics are only printed | |
21 | for those users; usually, statistics are printed for every | |
22 | user who has used any paper. | |
23 | ||
24 | The -\b-P\bP flag causes accounting to be done for the named | |
25 | printer. Normally, accounting is done for the default | |
26 | printer (site dependent) or the value of the environment | |
27 | variable P\bPR\bRI\bIN\bNT\bTE\bER\bR is used. | |
28 | ||
29 | The -\b-p\bp flag causes the value _\bp_\br_\bi_\bc_\be to be used for the cost | |
30 | in dollars instead of the default value of 0.02 or the price | |
31 | specified in /_\be_\bt_\bc/_\bp_\br_\bi_\bn_\bt_\bc_\ba_\bp. | |
32 | ||
33 | The -\b-c\bc flag causes the output to be sorted by cost; usually | |
34 | the output is sorted alphabetically by name. | |
35 | ||
36 | The -\b-r\br flag reverses the sorting order. | |
37 | ||
38 | The -\b-s\bs flag causes the accounting information to be summar- | |
39 | ized on the summary accounting file; this summarization is | |
40 | necessary since on a busy system, the accounting file can | |
41 | grow by several lines per day. | |
42 | ||
43 | The -\b-m\bm flag causes the host name to be ignored in the | |
44 | accounting file. This allows for a user on multiple | |
45 | machines to have all of his printing charges grouped | |
46 | together. | |
