                     15:      _L_a_b_e_l_s writes labels onto the standard output using coded
                     16:      information taken from standard input.  In the input, a line
                     17:      beginning with #### is a label header.  Subsequent lines up to
                     18:      the next header or end-of-file are accumulated and output so
                     19:      as to be centered horizontally and vertically on pin-feed
                     20:      label forms.  Lines beginning with **** are treated as comments
                     21:      and are ignored.
                     22: 
                     23:      The following options may appear in any order:

                     29:             character in _s_t_r_i_n_g.

                     32:             mat for rectangular mailing labels).
                     33: 
                     34:      Label forms should be used with a pin-feed platen.  For
                     35:      mailing labels, the carriage should be adjusted so that the
                     36:      first character is printed at the leftmost position on the
                     37:      label and so that the first line of the output is printed on
                     38:      the topmost line of the label.  Since tape labels are
                     39:      curved, some experimentation may be required to get the text
                     40:      positioned properly.

                     43:      Label lines may be at most 40 characters long and there may
                     44:      be at most eight lines per label.  If these limits are
                     45:      exceeded, a label with an error message is formatted onto
                     46:      standard error output.  Thus if standard output and standard
                     47:      error output are directed to the same file, an erroneous
                     48:      label does not result in misformatting of the other labels.
