     VIS(1)                                                     VIS(1)

     NAME
          vis - show invisible characters

     SYNOPSIS
          vis [ -t ] [ -s ] file ...

     DESCRIPTION
          Vis reads each file in sequence and writes it on the stan-
          dard output.  Non-printing characters are translated on out-
          put as in the `l' (list) command of ed(1). If no file is
          given vis reads from the standard input.  Option -t sup-
          presses translation of tabs.  Option -s strips non-printing
          characters and makes no other translation.
