Using Options With PIP
Explanation: With options you can process your source file in special ways. You can
expand tab characters, translate from upper- to lower-case, extract portions
of your text, verify that the copy is correct, and much more.
The PIP options are listed in Table 5-13 using n to represent a number
and s to represent a sequence of characters terminated by a CTRL-Z.
An option must immediately follow the file or device it affects. The option
must be enclosed in square brackets [ ]. For those options that require a
numeric value, no blanks can occur between the letter and the value.
You can include the [Gn] option after a destination file specification. You
can include a list of options after a source file or source device. An option
list is a sequence of single letters and numeric values that are optionally
separated by blanks and enclosed in square brackets
