Description howardjp 1999-08-11 13:30:00 UTC 
After opening my big mouth on freebsd-advocacy about how Unix 98
compliance was a worthy goal, more than one person told me to go
ahead and send in PRs with changes.  Well, here is one :)

This contains a shar of line(1).  It reads in one line of text 
up to and including a new line and prints it to the standard output.  
It has been depreciated in Unix 98 and will probably be removed in 
the next edition of the standard.

How-To-Repeat: 
Irrelevant.

James and I are discussing PR 13070, PR 13071 and PR 13074, which are 
all related.

This one won't be incorporated into FreeBSD, since the utility 
is flagged as "legacy" in the standard.
