The -e option permits given integers to be equal to each other. If combined
with -g or -l, only adjacent integers in the argument sequence can be equal.

.SH EXAMPLES
It may help to think of the -e, -g, and -l options as equivalent to the
infix algebraic “=”, “>”, and “<” operators respectively, with each option
putting its symbol between every given integer. For example,
putting its symbol between every given integer. The following example is

.SH BUGS
There are multiple ways to express compound comparisons; “less than or equal
to” can be -le or -el, for example.
.PP
The inequality comparison is -gl or -lg for “less than or greater than”; this
is elegant but unintuitive.
.PP
-egl, "equal to or less than or greater than", exits 0 no matter what for valid
-egl, “equal to or less than or greater than”, exits 0 no matter what for valid
program usage and may be abused to function as an integer validator.

.SH DESCRIPTION
Npc reads from standard input and writes to standard output, replacing non-
printing characters with printable equivalents. Control characters print as a
carat ('^') followed by the character '@' through '_' corresponding to the
character replaced (e.g. control-X becomes "^X"). The delete character (0x7F)
becomes "^?". Characters with the high bit set (>127) are printed as "M-"
carat (“^”) followed by the character “@” through “_” corresponding to the
character replaced (e.g. control-X becomes “^X”). The delete character (0x7F)
becomes “^?”. Characters with the high bit set (>127) are printed as “M-”
followed by the graphical representation for the same character without the
high bit set.
