I am reading this group for over a decade now, with much profit, and you rarely see my posts because groff just works for me! and I sincerely hope that it stays alive. I need it. What I miss and cannot implement on my own is exactly what was mentioned in another mail as a todo-list. Sometime I have to use TeX and LaTeX. No problems with that, no reason to start a groff-versus-tex-war. But a monoculture always is the worse choice. If I only knew what a mere user like me could contribute. Thanks to Werner and this group, always when I asked for help, I got it! Erich
