- The _\bf_\ba_\bc_\bt_\bo_\br utility will factor integers between -2147483648
- and 2147483647 inclusive. When a number is factored, it is
- printed, followed by a ``:'', and the list of factors on a
- single line. Factors are listed in ascending order, and are
- preceded by a space. If a factor divides a value more than
- once, it will be printed more than once.
-
- When _\bf_\ba_\bc_\bt_\bo_\br is invoked with one or more arguments, each
- argument will be factored.
-
- When _\bf_\ba_\bc_\bt_\bo_\br is invoked with no arguments, _\bf_\ba_\bc_\bt_\bo_\br reads
- numbers, one per line, from standard input, until end of
- file or error. Leading white-space and empty lines are
- ignored. Numbers may be preceded by a single - or +.
- Numbers are terminated by a non-digit character (such as a
- newline). After a number is read, it is factored. Input
- lines must not be longer than 255 characters.
-
- The _\bp_\br_\bi_\bm_\be_\bs utility prints primes in ascending order, one per
- line, starting at or above s\bst\bta\bar\brt\bt and continuing until, but
- not including s\bst\bto\bop\bp.\b. The s\bst\bta\bar\brt\bt value must be at least 0 and
- not greater than s\bst\bto\bop\bp.\b. The s\bst\bto\bop\bp value must not be greater
- than 4294967295. The default value of s\bst\bto\bop\bp is 4294967295.
-
- When the _\bp_\br_\bi_\bm_\be_\bs utility is invoked with no arguments, s\bst\bta\bar\brt\bt
- is read from standard input. S\bSt\bto\bop\bp is taken to be
- 4294967295. The s\bst\bta\bar\brt\bt value may be preceded by a single +.
- The s\bst\bta\bar\brt\bt value is terminated by a non-digit character (such
- as a newline). The input line must not be longer than 255
- characters.
