     LAB(1)                       (alice)                       LAB(1)

     NAME
          lab - label maker

     SYNOPSIS
          lab [ -m ] [ file ... ]

     DESCRIPTION
          Lab causes the files to be queued for printing as mailing
          labels.  If no files are named, the standard input is read.
          The option -m causes notification via mail(1) to be sent
          when the job completes.

          The last line of each label is identified by ending it with
          one or more spaces and a hyphen.  The hyphen must be the
          last character in the line; no white space may follow it.

     FILES
          spool area
          printer daemon

     BUGS
          Queued jobs print in directory (seemingly random) order.
