.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Wintext
prints the text of the current
.I win
(see
.IR acme (1))
or
.IR 9term (1)
window to standard output.
.PP
.I \C'"'
searches the window text for commands typed with a particular prefix
and prints them, indented, to standard output.
.I Prefix
is a regular expression that is matched against the beginning of the command-line.
If
.I prefix
is omitted,
.I \C'"'
prints the last command executed.
.I \C'"'\C'"'
prints the last command that
.I \C'"'
would print and then executes it by piping it into 
.IR rc (1).
.PP
Both
.I \C'"'
and
.I \C'"'\C'"'
identify commands in the window text by looking for lines
beginning with a shell prompt.
Prompts are assumed to be an unindented sequence of
non-whitespace characters followed by one of the
characters
.BR % ,
.BR ; ,
.BR $ ,
or
.BR # .
