NAME
gspl-qlist - display job queue
SYNOPSIS
gspl-qlist [ -options ] [ job number ... ]
DESCRIPTION
gspl-qlist outputs a table on standard output showing jobs on the GNUspool spool queue, including those
queued on other hosts on the network.
Each line of the output corresponds to a single job, and by default the output is generally similar to
the default format of the jobs screen of the gspl-pq(1) command, something like:
0024139 jmc report1 a4 23K 1 150
0026921 jmc prgm.c listing 12K 1 150
red:0021941 pbt report a4.lh 17K 2 150
The first field on each line is the numeric job number, preceded by a host name and a colon if on a
remote machine.
Various options described below enable the user to control the output in various ways. The job data
itself may also be extracted.
To limit the output to information about a given job or jobs, job numbers may be placed on the command
line.
OPTIONS
Note that the order of treatment, letters and keywords described below may be modified by editing the
file rest.help - see spsyntax(5). The environment variable on which options are supplied is "GSPL_QLIST"
and the environment variable to specify the help file is "SPRESTCONF".
-? or +explain
causes a summary of the other options to be displayed without taking further action.
-C nnnn or +classcode nnnn
restricts attention to jobs matching the class code given. This may be reduced further by the user's
class code unless he/she has override class privilege.
-D or +default-format
cancel a -F option and restore the default format.
-e or +no-page-counts
do not try to represent page numbers and counts on the output (this only affects the default format).
-E or +page-counts
do try to represent page numbers and counts on the output (this only affects the default format).
-F string or +format string
Specify user defined output format. The string argument contains characters to be printed and symbols
representing the required data fields. This option overrides and preceding -D option, and is itself
overridden by a following -D option. See the section on format codes below for details of the format
code sequences.
-H or +header
generate a header for each column of the output according to the field displayed there. The headers
are taken from the message file, by default rest.help, which may be adjusted as required.
-l or +local-only
display only jobs local to the current host.
-N or +no-header
cancel the -H option.
-n or +no-view-job
cancel the -V option.
-P range or +view-pages range
with the -V option, specify a range of pages to output.
A range may consist of single page numbers or subranges separated by commas, thus:
-V -P 1
-V -P 1,3,4-9
-V -P 2-7,12-
such arguments would respectively select page 1, pages 1, 3 and 4 to 9 and pages 2 to 7 and 12 to the
end. Omitted numbers either side of the - denote "the beginning" and "the end".
-p or +printed-jobs
restricts attention to jobs which have been printed.
-q name or +list-only name
List only jobs for, or which could be printed on the specified subset of printers. The set of
printers may contain just one name, a list of names or a list of patters for matching printer names.
Shell-like pattern matching applies to the pattern. You may well need to put quotes around the
pattern to avoid misinterpretation by the shell. This is further described below.
To cancel this argument, give a single - sign as an argument.
-r or +remotes
display jobs local to the current host and connected hosts.
-t string or +just-title string.
restricts attention to jobs whose title matches the pattern given. The pattern is further described
below.
-u user or +just-user user
restricts attention to jobs owned by the given user or list of users given by a pattern. The pattern
is further described below.
-V or +view-job
cancel the job listing output and send the text of the job or jobs to standard output.
-Y or +all-jobs
displays all jobs, canceling -y or -p.
-y or +unprinted-jobs
restricts attention to jobs which have not been printed.
-z or +include-null
when listing jobs restricted by a -q argument, include jobs with no destination printer.
-Z or +no-include-null
when listing jobs and printers restricted by a -q argument, do not include jobs without a destination
printer.
+freeze-current
Save all the current options in a .gnuspool file in the current directory.
+freeze-home
Save all the current options in a .gnuspool file in the user's home directory.
Patterns
The -q, -t and -u options may all be given a name, a comma-separated list of names or shell-like wildcard
patterns. The patterns all take the standard form:
* matches anything
? matches a single character
[a-mp-ru]
matches any one character in the range of characters given
[!n-z9]
matches any one character not in the range of characters given
Be careful to enclose these sequences in quotes in case the shell misinterprets them.
For example
gspl-qlist -q ljet,ptr3
gspl-qlist -q 'ptr*,lp[1-9]'
gspl-qlist -u 'j*'
gspl-qlist -t 'Acc*'
Format codes
The format string consists of a string containing the following character sequences, which are replaced
by the corresponding job parameters. The string may contain various other printing characters or spaces
as required.
Each column is padded, usually on the right, to the length of the longest entry. If a header is
requested, the appropriate abbreviation is obtained from the message file and inserted.
%% insert a single "%" sign
%A "wattn" if the write attention message flag is set.
%a "mattn" if the mail attention message flag is set.
%C class code
%c copies (right-justified)
%D page delimiter
%d delimiter number
%F post-processing flags
%f form type
%G "halted at" page number.
%H hold time
%h job title.
%K size of job in bytes
%L position reached in bytes.
%l "local" if local job only
%m "mail" if mail completion flag set.
%N job number, prefixed by host name if remote.
%O odd/even/swap flags.
%o originating host (might be different if via gspl-rpr(1)).
%P printer destination
%p priority.
%Q page reached.
%q "retain" if retained on queue.
%R page range.
%S size in pages.
%s "nohdr" if header suppressed.
%T delete time if not printed.
%t delete time if printed.
%U user name to be posted to.
%u user name owned by
%W submission or start time.
%w "write" if write completion message flag set.
Note that the various strings such as nohdr etc are read from the message file also, so it is possible to
modify them as required by the user.
The default format is
%N %u %h %f %Q %S %c %p %P
with the (default) -E option and
%N %u %h %f %L %K %c %p %P
with the -e option.
FILES
~/.gnuspool configuration file (home directory)
