An excellent book, and one that I have used a lot. But nobody can claim that it's up-to-date (it predates groff), and there are many features in groff that weren't in the troff version described. Isn't it sad that nothing more modern is available? Greg -- Sent from my desktop computer. Finger g...@lemis.com for PGP public key. See complete headers for address and phone numbers.
