pg -- display plain text or AWP file a page (screen) at a time

syntax:  pg <pathname> [-h] [-f] [-u] [-l] [-t tab_string]

ex:      pg this
         pg ?:txt -h
         como newfile;pg oldfile -l
         pg that -t"    "

Types contents of a file (any type, not just TXT).  Wildcards are 
allowed.  -h generates a header giving the date/time the file was last 
modified.  -f disables filtering of control characters; normally they 
are filtered out.

-u and -l force all alphabetic characters to display in uppercase or 
lowercase, respectively.

-p begins a new page after the file is printed.

-t lets you specify a string to be printed in place of each TAB
character (Ctrl-I).  You may want to make an alias for 'pg' with
a tab string.

At the bottom of each screen, you are prompted

   --- xx% --- more? (Y/N)

where xx is the percent of the file (calculated by counting 
characters, not lines) you have read so far.

When output is redirected to a file or to the printer, no prompting 
takes place.

Note:  many file types do not contain plain text.  This command   
       knows how to interpret AWP files, but simply displays all other  
       files byte-for-byte.  If you type a SYS file, for example, you  
       will get a lot of garbage and (probably) a few readable 
       messages.
