The SAS Format and Informat Print Utility is an
administrative tool to print SAS informats or formats that
reside in the CA MICS sharedprefix or unit level format

single execution.  It can also process multiple format
catalogs in a single execution.

  format catalogs.

o Print just the directory listing of a catalog or multiple
  catalogs.

o Specify individual or multiple formats by name. The
  utility supports colon (:) and hyphen (-) wildcard
  characters within the format name specification.
