                      3: .SH NAME
                      4: delamc \- delaminate a file using separator characters
                      5: .SH SYNOPSIS
                      6: \f3delamc\fP [\-tchars] {infile | \-} {outputfile | \-}...
                      7: .SH DESCRIPTION
                      8: \fIDelamc\fR delaminates an input file into several output files
                      9: according to the separator characters specified by the \f3chars\fR
                     10: argument following the \f3\-t\fR flag.
                     11: \fIDelamc\fR reads \f3infile\fR and writes the fields in each line to the
                     12: corresponding output files as individual lines. If no data occurs in
                     13: the specified position for a given input line an empty output line is
                     14: written. This insures that all output files contain the same number of
                     15: lines as the input file.
                     16: .PP
                     17: If `\-' is used for \f3infile\fR, the standard input is read.
                     18: If `\-' is used as an output file name, the corresponding field
                     19: is written to the standard output. If the \f3\-t\fR flag is not used,
                     20: an ascii horizontal tab character is assumed as the default
                     21: field separator.
                     22: .PP
                     23: The use of \fIdelamc\fR is illustrated by the following examples.
                     24: .DS
                     25: delamc tst.asm labels opcodes operands
                     26: .DE
                     27: reads the file \fItst.asm\fR and writes the fields, each of which is
                     28: separated by a tab character, to the output files \fIlabels\fR, \fIopcodes\fR,
                     29: and \fIoperands\fR.

                     32: .DE
                     33: reads the file \fIscores\fR and writes the fields, each of which is
                     34: separated by a colon, to the indicated output files.
                     35: .DS
                     36: delamc \-t,:; oldata f1 f2
                     37: .DE
                     38: reads the file \fIoldata\fR and separates the fields using either a comma,
                     39: a colon, or a semicolon.
                     40: .SH NOTES
                     41: The functionality of the Software Tools \fIdelam\fR has
                     42: been divided. \fIDelamc\fR differs from the Tools
                     43: syntax by allowing a set of separation characters to be specified.
