-.Sh NAME
-.Nm paste
-.Nd merge corresponding or subsequent lines of files
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Nm paste
-.Op Fl s
-.Op Fl d Ar list
-.Ar file ...
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm paste
-utility concatenates the corresponding lines of the given input files,
-replacing all but the last file's newline characters with a single tab
-character, and writes the resulting lines to standard output.
-If end-of-file is reached on an input file while other input files
-still contain data, the file is treated as if it were an endless source
-of empty lines.
-.Pp
-The options are as follows:
-.Bl -tag -width Fl
-.It Fl d Ar list
-Use one or more of the provided characters to replace the newline
-characters instead of the default tab.
-The characters in
-.Ar list
-are used circularly, i.e., when
-.Ar list
-is exhausted the first character from
-.Ar list
-is reused.
-This continues until a line from the last input file (in default operation)
-or the last line in each file (using the -s option) is displayed, at which
-time
-.Nm paste
-begins selecting characters from the beginning of
-.Ar list
-again.
-.Pp
-The following special characters can also be used in list:
-.Pp
-.Bl -tag -width flag -compact
-.It Li \en
-newline character
-.It Li \et
-tab character
-.It Li \e\e
-backslash character
-.It Li \e0
-Empty string (not a null character).
-.El
-.Pp
-Any other character preceded by a backslash is equivalent to the
-character itself.
-.It Fl s
-Concatenate all of the lines of each separate input file in command line
-order.
-The newline character of every line except the last line in each input
-file is replaced with the tab character, unless otherwise specified by
-the -d option.
-.El
-.Pp
-If
-.Ql Fl
-is specified for one or more of the input files, the standard
-input is used; standard input is read one line at a time, circularly,
-for each instance of
-.Ql Fl .
-.Pp
-The
-.Nm paste
-utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
-.Sh SEE ALSO
-.Xr cut 1
-.Sh STANDARDS
-The
-.Nm paste
-utility is expected to be
-.St -p1003.2
-compatible.
