+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B p
+[
+.BI - number
+]
+[
+.I file ...
+]
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I P
+copies its standard input, or the named files if given,
+to its standard output,
+stopping at the end of every 22nd line, and between files,
+to wait for a newline from the user.
+The page size may be set by
+saying (for example)
+.IP
+.L p -60
+.PP
+While waiting for a newline,
+.I p
+interprets some commands:
+.TP
+.B -
+Reprint last page.
+.L --
+reprints the second last page, etc.
+.TP
+.B !
+Pass the rest of the line to the shell as a command.
+.TP
+.B q
+Quit.
+.PP
+.I Pg
+and
+.I more
+are synonyms for
+.I p.
+.SH BUGS
+Because of limited storage,
+.I p
+can't back up too far.
+.br
+.I Pg
+and
+.I more
+exist only to placate old programs that call paginators.
