+.PC "Display nonprinting as well as printing characters"
+\fBsee < \fItableorlist\fR
+.PP
+.II "file^display contents"
+The command
+.B see
+displays the contents of
+.IR tableorlist .
+Unlike the COHERENT command
+.BR cat ,
+.B see
+represents all nonprinting characters by converting
+them to the form
+\fB^\fIsome-printing-character\fR.
+It is essentially the same as the Berkeley UNIX commands
+.B see
+or
+.BR "cat -v" .
+.PP
+.B see
+is very useful for seeing if you have placed tabs into your tables or lists.
+Tabs print out as
+.B ^I
+because they are also
+obtained by typing \fB<ctrl-I>\fR.
+.B see
+is also helpful for finding nonprinting characters.
+.SH Example
+To see the if the tabs are placed correctly in table
+.BR badtable ,
+type:
+.DM
+	see < badtable
+.DE
+.PP
+You'll see something like:
+.DM
+Date^IAccount^IDebit^ICredit^IDescription$

+.SH Notes
+.B see
+assumes ASCII characters with a value between 0 and 127.
+.B see
+adds 128 to negative characters and to characters with values greater
+than 127.
+It then adds the value of ASCII `A' to characters with a value less
+than that of a blank character (ASCII 32)
+so they map to the upper-case characters.
+.PP
+For example, NUL
+is printed as \fB^@\fR, a tab character as \fB^I\fR, and a form-feed character
+as \fB^L\fR.
