>Description:
When you ask pr to use form feeds at the end of pages and specify a page
length and tell pr to not put the fancy headers and footers on each
pages, then pr will not separate the pages with a form feed.
>How-To-Repeat:
lpr -l 20 -F -t < long-file | more
You will notice that you don't get form feeds often enough
>Fix:
The following patch should fix the problem. It honors the request for
form feeds in all the right places.
