I've used latex before, but that needs to generate a fair number of files from your input foo.tex document, so it can be painful making sure that none of these overwrite existing files and to clean them all up afterwards. groff is neater in this respect, as you can just pipe strings into the lpr command. -- Stephen Patterson http://patter.mine.nu/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] remove SPAM to reply Linux Counter No: 142831 GPG Public key: 252B8B37 Caution: breathing may be hazardous to your health. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
