                      3: prep                         Command                         prep
                      4:

                      8: Produce a word list
                      9: 
                     10: pprreepp [ -ddffpp ] [ -ii _i_f_i_l_e ] [ -oo _o_f_i_l_e ] [ _f_i_l_e ... ]
                     11: 
                     12: The command prep prepares a  word list that is useful for statis-
                     13: tical processing from the  textual data found in each input file.
                     14: If no file is given, prep reads the standard input for text.
                     15: 
                     16: For the  purposes of  prep, a  word consists of  a string  of al-
                     17: phabetic  letters and  apostrophes.  Words  are written,  one per
                     18: line, to  the standard output.   Hyphenated words are  treated as
                     19: two  words.  However,  any word hyphenated  between two  lines is
                     20: rejoined as one word.
                     21: 
                     22: prep recognizes the following options:
                     23: 
                     24: -dd   Print a sequence number  (of words in the input text) before
                     25:      each output word.
                     26: 
                     27: -ff   Fold upper-case  letters into lower case.  This is sometimes
                     28:      useful for producing unique lists of words.
                     29: 
                     30: -ii _i_f_i_l_e
                     31:      Ignore words  found in ifile.  ifile has  words one per line
                     32:      that are matched again each input word independent of case.
                     33: 
                     34: -oo _o_f_i_l_e
                     35:      Print only words  found in ofile.  Only one of  -i or -o may
                     36:      be specified.
                     37: 
                     38: -pp   In  addition to printing words,  also print each punctuation
                     39:      character (printable,  non-numeric characters  that separate
                     40:      words), one per line.  These lines are not counted for -d.
