TLDR

SYNOPSIS

print file

DESCRIPTION

print is an alias to run-mailcap's print action. It processes files based on their MIME type and sends them to the appropriate print handler defined in the mailcap configuration.
Originally run-mailcap is used to process mime-type/file associations, and print provides a convenient shorthand for the print action.

CAVEATS

Requires proper mailcap configuration for the file's MIME type. Print behavior depends on system print configuration.

HISTORY

Part of the mime-support package, providing MIME type handling utilities for Unix-like systems.
