// Command mc prints in multiple columns.
//
//   Usage: mc [-] [-N] [file...]
//
// Mc splits the input into as many columns as will fit in N
// print positions. If the output is a tty, the default N is
// the number of characters in a terminal line; otherwise the
// default N is 80. Under option - each input line ending in
// a colon ':' is printed separately.
