And if you are looking for other examples, several international standards, including both the C and POSIX standards, are good examples of large, popular, *roff based publications (and always have been). The current version of POSIX (due to be published next year) is almost 4,000 pages of hyperlinked PDF (thanks to Keith Marshall's pdfmark macros) in a supserset of the mm macros (with a good amount of tbl and eqn preprocessor). And if we had to start over again, though there are a few TeX proponents around the committees, I am certain we would use groff again .... -- Nick Stoughton Cell: 510 388 1413 USENIX Standards Liaison Fax: 510 548 5738
